What are the weather overlay capabilities of these units? Can you
overlay a radar map on top of your airspace map? Across a route you are
navigating?
Yes, yes, and yes. Everything -- airspace, navigation, and radar
returns -- can be shown on the same map. (You can add satellite, too.)
Sadly, the 496's screen is so little that it's difficult to see any of
this great stuff.
Horse****. You can see it fine all if you put it on the yoke where it
belongs.
Note to newbies: Honeck dogged Garmin until he realized the 496 beat the
crap out of anything else that would tell him where the hairy stuff was,
then he had to buy one.
Now he has to whine about the screen size or whatever, nitpicking in an
effort to avoid admitting he's been full of **** all along. IOW, typical
Honeck.
