Plans a Complete System Give-Away Contest at AOPA Expo
Control Vision, makers
of award-winning Anywhere Map, Anywhere Wx, and Pocket Plates has
just raised the bar on handheld GPS systems with a suite of
advanced capabilities. The Kansas company announced Anywhere Map
Version 1.6; a next-generation moving map application with new
features such as advanced VNAV, improved weather integration, an
all-new Emergency Landing Mode, improved graphics, and
user-definable views. The system takes advantage of the new Hewlett
Packard iPAQ 4700 series PDA with a larger, higher resolution color
screen, higher performance, and slim form factor. This sleek system
mounts in a newly designed Citadel mount that protects the
connector and makes installation a snap.
“We call it the
Pocket MFD”, said Jay Humbard, President and CEO. “A
pilot now has a complete GPS navigation system including XM WX
weather avoidance and legal instrument approach plates, all on a
system that still slips into a shirt pocket.”
Humbard pointed out that General Aviation is seeing the days of
proprietary handheld GPS systems that supply only navigation coming
to a close. “Pilots are asking,” said Humbard,
“why should I buy a brick-sized unit that won’t do
anything different three years from now than the day it comes out
of the box?”
“We continually advance Anywhere Map’s features and
functions with software upgrades that cost a third of
competitors’ data-only subscriptions,” he said.
“When you add XM weather and Pocket Plates, you have all the
functionality of a glass cockpit in the palm of your hand; Safety,
Efficiency, Increased Aircraft Utility—all for a fraction of
the initial and ongoing cost of panel systems.”
“Anywhere Map is the Swiss Army Knife of GPS
systems,” commented Aero-News.net’s Jim Campbell.
