I'm sure you'll get a pile of responses saying to use paper maps and use proper planning and I'd agree. However I use gps daily but always carry maps for planning and reference and see nothing wrong with doing so.

I use a garmin 296 and find it more than adequate. The 196 would see you right too but not a colour display.

Enjoy flying in NZ.
