RE: Been reliable for me
You have provided a balanced critique of this product compiled from your first hand experiences.
It helped to push the image of this website away from tabloid towards a respected institution.
RE: Been reliable for me
In fact, I'm thinking of running a nukulur reaktur off of my 700p (if it ever gets past this perpetual white screen here........).
RE: Been reliable for me
The critical periods in a flight are the take offs and landings. Only a fool would be looking at the navigation tools available to a pilot when taking off or landing, whether it is a map, a gps, a vor needle, or I'm sure I'm missing something.
Lets see, the navigation tools available to a pilot include the following. Look out the window, call a flight center and get flight following. They can direct me to any airport by using radar and my transponder, Look at the sectional map that I am required to carry. Use the vor (a directional radio for navigation purposes). When flying it is very important to have multiple forms of navigation for redundancy purposes. GPS navigation is a wonderful tool that helps increase situational awareness to the pilot but backup forms of navigation are important also.
I failed to note previously that I also used the software in my car for 60 - 70 hours also.
I've only had my private pilot rating for about a year and a half. I have to say it has been one of the most saticfying things I ever set out to learn how to do.
Best Regards,
Jon
