The Americas Version covers all of North America, Central America, Caribbean and South America as far south as Antarctica
The Garmin 96 is an ultra portable introduction to aviation GPS systems by Garmin. The Garmin 96 GPS has you covered in the air, but once you land the device allows you to take your navigation on the road. Speaking of being on the road, when you order your Garmin 96 American Version from SkyGeek you’ll benefit from our $1.00 Overnight Shipping. Even the best GPS can’t help you find that deal anywhere else.
A Trifecta of Navigation: Store data with optional MapSource products and you can hop out of your plane, hike to your favorite coast, and hop in a boat without skipping a beat. The Garmin 96 American Version navigates by land, air and sea for the ultimate in versatility.
Battery Running Low? No big deal. Just pop in a couple of AA batteries and you’re set to go.
Enhanced Situational Awareness for the Oblivious: It’s easy to get caught up in the moment with the wind and clouds whipping around your plane, but the Garmin 96’s built-in Jeppesen database will alert you to any looming obstacles. The database on the Garmin 96 GPS shows localizer-like runway extensions and graphic HSI steering with VNAV for enhanced situational orientation and awareness. (AKA it thinks for you.)
Easy to Read, Easy to Use: The 4-level grayscale display is bright and sunlight-readable for improved detail that is easy to read in a variety of settings and lighting. In addition, the GPS features a simple keypad and a streamlined design that fits comfortably in the palm of your happy little hands.
Exnay the Paperwork: The Garmin 96 features an automated logbook that tracks your flying hours and records departure and arrival locations. Garmin has free logbook software, FlightBook, which can be used to simplify record keeping and flight data, leaving your attention free to focus on your first love, flying.
