"RD" wrote in message ... | | 1. Are basic GPS modules such as the ones you take camping/fishing good | enough? No. They are almost as expensive as dedicated aviation GPS receivers without nearly the utility. | 2. What about PalmPilot/Windows CE based hand held units? Some are very good, even better than the dedicated units. | 3. Is it worth buying a decent Garmin model? Yes. | | What are your experiences? I used GARMIN handhelds for a long time, but now most of the planes that I fly have panel mounted units certified for IFR. I think it is better to buy a plane of your own. Form a partnership if you have to. Then you can have a decent IFR GPS any time you need it. |
