ANN Major Sponsor, Garmin, Helps Show The World Oshkosh 2007

NO ONE Can Get You Where You Want To Go Like Garmin

When ANN partners up with a major sponsor for something as important as Oshkosh, we like to make sure we're dealing with nothing but the best... like Garmin. So... as you peruse the wonders of Wittman Field, don't forget to stop by Garmin's 2007 Oshkosh exhibit at Hangar D. They have something for everyone -- from kitbuilders to airline pilots.

As the proven leader in general aviation avionics, Garmin's avionics are feature rich and logical to operate. Stop by Garmin's Oshkosh booth and twist the knobs on any of our systems. You'll instantly be able to tell that their state-of-the-art avionics are designed by pilots for pilots.

Deliveries of the revolutionary G900X kitplane avionics suite have begun! The G900X is the perfect centerpiece to the perfect plane you're building. The G900X avionics suite is an all-glass panel for Lancair and Van's RV-series aircraft.  It integrates all primary flight, navigation, communication, terrain, traffic, surveillance, weather and engine sensor data on two 10.4 inch, high-definition LCDs.  The dealer-supplied G900X package comes with everything you need for a simple, straightforward installation, from WAAS-certified GPS/Comm with transponder and AHRS sensors to audio panel, wiring harness, drawings, AHRS and magnetometer mounting brackets and more. Just add the finishing touches, and your glass cockpit is ready to fly.

Fly smarter and safer with the GPSMAP 496. With more power and information than any other portable handheld on today's market, the GPSMAP 496 is an essential piece of equipment for all pilots.  It includes XM WX weather, enhanced terrain database, obstacle information, SafeTaxi, AOPA database, preloaded automotive maps of North America, and more. Whether you're dodging thunderstorms with the XM WX satellite weather,  simplifying taxi instructions with SafeTaxi, or deciding the best place to buy fuel with the AOPA database, the 496 is the one "know-it-all" you'll want on every flight.

Welcome to the WAAS age. It's not some futuristic vision anymore. It's here and ready to fly now! Have you shot your first WAAS approach yet? If not, you're falling behind the power curve. WAAS is on the charts now - with over 5,000 vertical guidance approaches in service across the US. WAAS brings glideslopes to scores of smaller GA airports. The WAAS system improves the accuracy, reliability and integrity of the GPS signal.  GPS-WAAS navigators that meet the FAA's WAAS regulations may be used for sole means of navigation for all phases of flight, including en route through precision approach at airports. With WAAS LPV approaches, pilots will have stabilized lateral and vertical navigation and will be able to navigate as low as 200 feet above the runway end under IFR.  It's WAASome.
