DAYAM! when I first started flying, I had a ratty map in my lap and lived in fear of getting lost!

MexicoBlue has a reputation beyond repute

Now just punch in the coordinates for Arkansas, and head down (or over, depending on which of the many palaces you are at) this winter for some duck hunting. You need some time away from the ball and chain . . .

I still think it's odd that Garmin is billing something the size of your head as "portable" but it's hard to argue with electronic charts, weather, etc. in one device at that price point. I may end up looking into one of these for my 310.
