Detail-rich Moving Map
 Aviation-inspired signature accents along the bezel and a unique feature set tailored to aviators bring additional functionality to the cockpit. A colorful, dynamic moving map incorporates key landmarks, such as airports, NAVAIDs, roads, bodies of water, cities and more, offering improved situational awareness. Dedicated Direct-to and Nearest buttons along the side of the bezel allows for immediate navigation commands.

To easily access local weather radar, pilots can simply press and hold the Direct-to and Down buttons. Pilots can also overlay estimated time enroute (ETE), universal coordinated time (UTC) or other pilot-selectable data fields on top of the map, so it?s easy to monitor the progress of a flight and view pertinent flight information simultaneously. | Premium Materials, Elegant Style
