Garmin versus Garmin

[G-UAVA]

When I was looking at both 495 and Aera models side by side, the viewing angle was much better on the 495. I personally thought the screen appearance clearer overall on the "old" units.

Is that because of the design of a touch screen, making the image less clear?

Many thanks Flybymike!

I dug into the menu layers of my Aera 500, and sure enough, the line is available! In selecting the 2 minute length for the line, I amused myself by making it dissapear, when turning into today's rather intense wind at altitude, and entering slow flight. With an 11 MPH ground speed, the line disappears under the airplane symbol.

I am pleased this feature is available, and appreciate your information...

Cheers, Jim
