Default GPS system


FYI most GPS units designed for land/sea use don't work very well


You bring up one of my pet peeves with the Lowrance unit I am now using.

It defaults to including all the nautical stuff in the data base. Each time
I switch between land and aviation use I have to remove the undersea
obstructions, buoy, etc.

Even with my limited ceiling I don't often have to dodge marker buoys at
altitude.
