The GPSMAP 196 is a versatile navigator for air, land, and sea.
This WAAS-capable unit has detailed moving map graphics, HSI steering guidance,
a Jeppesen database, and all the other pilot-friendly features you'd expect from
Garmin. You'll be amazed at the exceptional resolution and contrast on this
unit's 12-level grayscale display, and its lightning-fast processor makes for
extremely fast map redraws and scrolling.
Situational awareness gets a boost from built-in land detail that includes
political boundaries, cities, interstates, roads, rivers, and lakes. Steering
guidance is clearly presented through a graphic HSI with VNAV, with extended
runway centerlines to help orient you to the runway. 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 GPSMAP 196 Flightbook
software at any time.
The GPSMAP 196 compromises nothing in its versatility, going from cockpit to
land to water. In fact, it offers some of the same features found in expensive
in-dash car navigation systems, including auto routing. In addition to the
built-in Garmin basemap, the GPSMAP 196 accepts most of our MapSource(R) products.
Features include:
- Unique panel page graphically displays flight information
- Logbook feature automatically records departure airports, arrival
airports, and flight time, all of which can downloaded to free Flightbook
software
Extended runway centerlines display on a moving map

Its an excellent navigator ..
by Eggert from Kissimmee FL USA
Pros: Easy to use and has features to please most of aviatiors.
Cons: Doesn't have a colour screen
Review: It's exactly what I had imagined and even better. I love the big screen and the backup instruments that can be displayed. The info that can be retained from it is also very handy in the air.
