I got a Garmin 76SC at the beginning of summer. It's not really for avaition but it does all the stuff you'd need, but without the aviation $$. A bonus is it's got a fishing guide for peek bite times... cool!

 

Most of the screens have options for which info to display and it's very user friendly. You can purchase the topo maps from Garmin and they're very good too. I also purchased the RAM mounting system and that stuff is awesome.

I've had the 296 for just over a year now and have had no problems with it. Best GPS I've ever used and very pilot friendly. Try GPS Central in Calgary. Easy to deal with and have a great selection of extras.

Supporting Verical X, GPS Central in Calgary generally have the best prices around and, if you can get a group of buyers together (5 or 6), they'll give you an even better deal than their already good price.

sounds like the 296 is the go!

 

Where is a cheap place to buy one in Canada??

Geez, I didn't even know they existed! Thanks folks!

 

In that my old Garmin 55 is a lot out dated, I guess its time to invest in one of those new fancy SOBs with all the techno gizmos that'll take me five weeks to figure out!!

 

Anybody have a W.A.G. figure for one of those 296s??
