Garmin GHA 15 Height Advisor - Experimental

[Rick Junkin]

Garmin has entered the landing height market, initially in the EAB/light sport applications. Shouldn’t be too long before they get it into the certified market, but who knows. 

Pricier than the LHS, it’s designed to integrate with the G3X. 
 

Another item to keep an eye on.

I wonder what frequency they use.  This is radar based.   Wonder if there is the 5G interference issue.

LHS is laser.

I’d be interested to know from @Microkit what the advantages are to LHS over this. I own a Microkit setup, but obviously have never seen one of the Garmin units and would be curious what the Garmin angle is.

Since different from the LHS lasar, i am most curious if it would see through clouds? It’s somewhat annoying when all of a sudden you descend into IMC on approach and the LHS unit says 10 feet!

The Garmin angle is that it is Garmin, and they will integrate it with the other Garmin things.

But I like the aural call outs.  No going head down under 200 feet.
