Marauder Posted August 18, 2016 Report Posted August 18, 2016 With all the stuff you have been selling lately, you wouldn't have a kitchen sink in the mix somewhere? Quote

You've got jokes this morning..even after the cost of shipping those bikes. That's good..lol What I put on here is just aviation related..You should see my EBay. I'm afraid they will hold my plane hostage until I get the bill paid from the upgrades, of course that's if they ever get done. Of course it's also getting to be property tax time and insurance renewal with the business..always something. I'm thinking only thing left after this is yard-sale next weekend :)..but, hey I'm making progress and I might have a kitchen sink in there for you. I think the upgrades were just a good motivation to get me to clean out clutter..maybe a "win-win". Out with the old, in with the new. -Tom 1 Quote

Do you really think those little bikes can hold up under my riding style? 1 Quote

golfpilot Posted August 18, 2016 Report Posted August 18, 2016 Just curious, What does the Garmin 560 do that an iPad cant to warrant a $600 price tag, used Quote

The same answer pretty much applies here as well. The 560 is smaller and designed for aviation, plus has the BT and XM features. The Garmin 560 is sold . Sold pending a reply and a second waiting in the wings. -Tom Quote

I used to have an aera before I got the iPad and have always wondered if there was something I was missing. A year from now I will probably make another ignorant comment Quote
carusoam Posted August 20, 2016 Report Posted August 20, 2016 The Garmin products resist temperature related shutdowns and in general don't crash. When their batteries run out it takes seconds to pop in a new set. The two device manufacturers are good at different things. It is best to have a version of both. Then you realize your needs are different than the next pilot. Fortunately, With enough experience you can answer this question for yourself. Because, nobody else will be able to do it for you. Best regards, -a- 1 Quote
flight2000 Posted August 20, 2016 Report Posted August 20, 2016 After using both ADS-B weather and XM side by side for about 6 months, I prefer the XM weather. Just seems to be a little more reliable and accurate, especially out west where there are still gaps in the ADSB coverage at times. No issues with XM. Brian Quote
jetdriven Posted August 23, 2016 Report Posted August 23, 2016 (edited) The Aera snaps into a panel dock and outputs audio to the intercom. It also will transfer flight plans with the Garmin GPS navigators. It's powered by ships power and has a backup battery. In getting the aera 660 and my aera 500 with panel dock will be available soon Edited August 23, 2016 by jetdriven Quote
