It takes innovation, design integrity, engineering ingenuity and old-fashioned pilot know-how to pull together all the capabilities of the Garmin 196 GPSMAP. Similar to the Garmin 296, the Garmin 196 GPS has similar features, a crisp grayscale screen, and a much lower price tag. The Garmin 196 is an affordable introduction into Garmin aviation GPS systems. To learn more about pilots’ responses to the Garmin 196, read the Garmin 196 Review page on SkyGeek. You can even post your own!
Super Cool GPS Panel Page: Just look at the panel page: GPS-derived HSI, airspeed indicator, altimeter, VSI and turn coordinator. Pilots have a term for this page: cool. Push the page key and more flying-friendly information appears. Like feathered runway extensions on the map page and detailed data that pops-up when you scroll over built-in points of interest. Need to see two things at once? No problemo with the split-screen feature; it allows you to monitor both HSI and map pages. The panel improves your situational awareness.
Faster and More Accurate: Your flying will be faster and more accurate with a faster and more accurate GPS leading the way. A 320 x 240 pixel screen with a 12 level backlit display showcases crisp graphics which redraw with incredible speed thanks to a newer, faster processor.
Just Say No to Tedious Paperwork: The Garmin 196 GPS comes equipped with an automatic logbook that calculates flight times, arrival times, and departure times. This allows you to focus on the fun part – flying.
Versatile Capabilities – Navigate by Land, Air or Sea: The GPSMAP 196’s first love is flying, but with user selectable formats and optional MapSource CD information, your aviation GPS can take to the streets and provide address look-up, automatic routing and turn-by-turn directions. And for those who also have propellers under the water, the GPSMAP 196 offers marine navaids, depth contours, tide data and more all in a waterproof case. The GPSMAP 196.
