http://www.memory-map.co.uk/maps_uk_intheair.htm I’ve got Lowrance 600C with terrain awareness in my Rans S6 and a MIO PDA with built in GPS as a backup.
I create my routes on my home PC using memorymap’s scanned CAA charts, and then download them to the Lowrance and my PDA.
Although the Lowrance is my primary GPS I use a MIO in the air to:
A. Confirm my position with the chart.
B. Back up my primary GPS and
C. Give my passenger something to look at.
Memorymap hasn’t got ‘go-to nearest’ etc futures that are found in a dedicated unit, but when it comes to working out where you are, you cant beat looking at the real CAA map on display on the PDA as apposed to a digital representation that Garmin/Lowrance etc do.
