Like Ghengis I've got a basic no-map Magellan. £100 - does knots and nm.

You can only store 100 waypoints and a route of 10. But it's all I need.

Wonderful.

(I am lying of course. It does have a map - the paper one on my lap)

Garmin III has to be the best. I've had a Skymap, and a Magellan and the Garmin wins hands down EVERY time.

Got a III pilot earlier this year and agree with all previous posts. Cheapest supplier I found was Waters and Stanton (not advertising - just saving people a few quid ) I also find the bean bag very useful and much cheaper that the yoke mount

If you want to have a look at the latest and greatest try
www.anywheremap.com

Not only is it astounding as a GPS you also have a fully functional pocket computer.

The hardest thing about flying is knowing when to say no.
