Hi ,

No, the 196 doesn't have the "2.5 miles W Milton Keynes" type text display that the Skymap does. That's a slight shame, but, having used both, on balance I think that the runway centreline display, the panel display, and the fact that you can use the 196 for road navigation as well in land mode, more than makes up for that.

PS - not that short a space of time; look at the year on the first posts above!
