Bought a Garmin Pilot III last week and used it over the weekend. So far an excellent little GPS, whilst playing around on the moving map display I zoomed in and found that the map had every little bend and kink in a river that I was flying over at the time. But I also found a main railway line that was out by about two miles and a disused railway, and I mean disused for about 30 years, was spot on! Batteries seem to last for ages too. Have seen the Pilot III's mounted in many aircraft in my travels. Bought mine for $875.00 ($Aus) which is pretty good too.
