The GPSMAP 96C offers an extensive Jeppesen
database along with a U.S. database of obstacles for
the ultimate in moving-map situational awareness. It
depicts Jeppesen® airport data overlaid on an
electronic map, localizer-like runway extensions, a
GPS-derived horizontal situation indicator (HSI) and
information on nearby airports (including identifier,
bearing and distance to each). It also features
a detailed database of nearby obstructions like radio
towers and high-rise buildings. Using symbology, it
depicts an obstacle along the flight route, giving pilots
a visual cue and alerting them to potential
hazards ahead.
An automatic logbook also calculates your flight
time and automatically records departure and arrival
locations. When used with Garmin's free logbook
software—FlightBook—this
feature makes light work of maintaining your logbook.
Your flight information will be stored in the unit and
can be downloaded to this exclusive Flightbook
software at any time.
Like all of Garmin's new aviation portables, the GPSMAP
96C also provides advanced navigation capabilities on
the road or water. It features a built-in
basemap depicting highways, major roads, lakes,
rivers, railroads and state and national borders.
It also provides automatic-route generation, off-route
recalculation, and turn-by-turn directions with
audible tones to alert the driver of upcoming turns.
When coupled with optional MapSource
City Select® software, GPSMAP 96C enables the
user to locate and route to more than 5 million points
of interest, including hotels, restaurants, service
stations, ATMs and more. For pilots who also
like to captain a boat, these units have a Marine
mode. Using optional MapSource
BlueChart® or Recreational
Lakes with Fishing Hot Spots® software, users can
navigate the high seas or nearby lakes with ease.
An added bonus: The GPSMAP 96C is not only
waterproof, but also floats!
The GPSMAP 96C: One nav fits all.
