The Pacific International Version covers all of Asia

Now, terrain awareness doesn’t have to be so steep. Thanks to the affordable Garmin GPSMAP 296 color portable with built-in terrain mapping and alerting.

Detailed sectional chart-style shaded mapping and an extensive Jeppesen® database help you visualize your flight path in relation to nearby navaids, terrain, SUAs, obstructions, etc. Plus, you can put the unit in "Terrain" mode for TAWS-like warnings and alerts when proximity conflicts loom ahead. Since nearly 40 percent of all aircraft accidents are a result of Controlled Flight Into Terrain (CFIT), the "look ahead" hazard alerting features of the GPSMAP 296 can provide that extra margin of safety you need to make timely terrain avoidance decisions and maneuvers.

For added versatility, optional MapSource® CD downloads and user-selectable formats let you transfer this portable GPS from plane to boat to automobile without missing a beat. Airways, highways or waterways – Garmin’s go-anywhere GPSMAP 296 is one world-class navigation value.
