  • it didn't say anything about the collision avoidance system on this review. Is that an add on or something?

  • thumbs up to gary burrell and min kao for this awesome gar-min product

  • I would never fly an old 6-pack gauge plane without Aera 560. situational awareness (terrain, weather, safe taxi, collision avoidance) makes all the difference between life and death trust me!

  • I love it and it can do a lot of stuff i didn't know that it can do. and Touchscreen!

  • This looks so cool!!!
