December 13, 2012 - Garmin a global leader in
satellite navigation, today announced the
release of European VFR and IFR charts for the
aera 795/796 aviation portable GPS, with VFR
data sourced directly from Deutsche
Flugsicherung (DFS).
These charts are the most recent addition to the
growing list of worldwide aviation charting
products available from Garmin.
“Pilots have flown behind DFS paper charts for
years, but the ability to display the charts
electronically is something our European
customers have been asking for" said Carl Wolf,
Garmin’s vice president of aviation sales and
marketing.
"We’ve listened to that feedback and have made
significant investments over the last year to
expand our electronic chart offerings for
customers worldwide.”
“Having information available electronically in
the cockpit offers pilots more immediate access
to the information they need to make good
decisions.”
