hummm.
Not so black and white at all.
Bottom line I use the ipad with Avplan/Ozrunways all the time, and have not yet had to use the backup Garmin.
Garmin so called map on all its VFR products here just its base map, which not much better than the screen on Garmin /IL Morrow GX50 from 20 years ago. They provide vfr charts in North America and Europe, not elsewhere.
Garmin refuse to provide any local vfr charts here, and have refused to allow third parties here to provide vfr charts for use on their portable or panel products, something other manufacturers (Dynon) encourage/allow.
