If you are looking for moving map dispays, i9 found this little gem at Sun n Fun, the iFly GPS 700.
It is an inexpensive touch screen driven GPS overlayed on sectional charts.
There are NO hard keys anywhere!
This is great for VFR pilots, and Nav Data for IFR situational awareness.
In addition, it contains all the IFR charts for reference, but the GPS does NOT overlay the approach plates. Total cost is the best part - $499.
Data updates are only $69 per YEAR and are done at home on any computer with a USB port as often as needed.
Download the latest data (sectionals, approach plates, software) and then plugin to the unit for simple update. This covers all US sectionals, and gives you the current TFR's and Metars.
There is NO weather download in air.
The data fields can be resized, colored and moved or deleted.
Intuitive flight planing and adding waypoints on the fly.
Check out the You Tube Video. (turn up the volume, he is too soft for me)
