GPS questions

Jase,

Have a look at the Lowrance Airmap 2000c, which has a bigger screen
than the Garmin but isn't quite as big as the Avmap - at a very
interesting price.

This 2000c is a very good unit.

I agree -- and, in fact, we bought one at OSH '05, to replace our old
Lowrance Airmap 300.

If portability is necessary -- and a cigarette lighter is unavailable -- go
with the 2000c. It's not quite an AvMap -- nothing else is -- but the 2000c
has batteries that last between 2 and 5 hours, if needed.

Has Lowrance put terrain and/or obstacle data into their GPS yet?

Yes to obstacles. Terrain is an extra $99 option which is now available.

Jay,

Do you have any pointers to where I could find this? On their website,
maybe?

Sorry, no. I'm just relaying what the Lowrance reps at OSH and the sales
reps at the CPA fly-in told me.

Our new Lowrance 2000C arrived this week, terrain is an add-on that will
take place next month, it will be available through their dealers. I
know ours promised us a price lower than what Jay quoted...

He got the best deal on the original purchase though at Oshkosh...

You can always hardwire it to the plane. I did that when I had Garmin
handhelds.
