INTRODUCING THE GARMIN GPS 95

1.1 CAPABILITIES

The GPS 95 provides a host of powerful capabilities which were previously

found only in much larger systems:

· Performance: MultiTrac

receiver tracks and uses up to eight

satellites with high sensitivity, fast first fix, and continuous navigation

updates.

· Portability: Goes anywhere - air, sea or land. Built-in simulator for

trip planning or practicing navigation skills anywhere.

· Ease of Use: Graphic screens and intuitive guidance from the display

offer ease of operation.

· Convenience: Extensive database (Americas or International), covers

airports, VORs, NDBs, intersections, special-use airspaces and

controlled airspaces. Update the database at home or in your office

using your PC.

· Navigation: Stores 500 alphanumeric user waypoints; 20 reversible

routes of 30 waypoints each. GOTO function sets instantaneous

course to waypoint of your choice. AutoStore

function builds routes

as you go. A flashing message annunciator keeps you fully informed

of your navigation status.

· Personalized: Customize your unit by selecting distance and speed

units, Course Deviation Indicator (CDI) sensitivity, keypad and display

features, map datums, and interface options.

· Low Power Consumption: Battery Saver operation draws less than

1.5 watts; provides up to four hours of continuous operation with the

AA battery pack.

· Trip Planning: Analyze distance, time, and fuel requirements for your

trip. Compute time of sunrise/sunset at your destination. Calculate

density altitude before you take off and true airspeed as you fly.

Vertical navigation guides you to your cruising altitude and puts you in

the traffic pattern before landing.
