I purchased a Magellan gps 310 from WAM (across the road from the scareoclub) several years ago, and have used it all over the world in everything from a C152 to a kingair. It has operated flawlessly in every respect. It is simple to use, cheap to own (AUD$320), cheap to operate (two AA batts get you on average about 30hrs use) and has the aviation set up in the menue.
Its a very basic unit but it will do all that you want it to. and its very accurate........ compared to the $10,000 unit in my C310 and the $3500 unit in the other plane.
pretty hard to go past this little ripper for a cheap and reliable unit.
