I use the Map96 for commercial operations and have found it excellent. Moving map, North up or track up, very handy. Airspace and alarms airport info, frequencies, runways, refuellers etc. It has an extremely comprehensive database of suburbs and small towns. Very handy in a helicopter because you never know where you might be off to next. The info on pages is configureable as is the page order and number of pages available.

And it can be set in automotive, marine or aviation mode. If you by it make sure you have a good read of the manual as there is so much it can do that is very useful and practical. The cost was about $750 Aus from memory
