What other benefits can a pilot get from the GNS 480/CNX 80 beyond WAAS capability?

The GNS 480 is a fully integrated navigation and communication solution for aviation. In addition to WAAS GPS capability, the GNS 480 includes a full VHF Comm transceiver and VHF Navigation Receiver with full ILS and glideslope capability. Additionally, the GNS 480 has the capability of tuning a remote-mounted transponder.

More importantly, it offers what no other navigation system developed for GA ever has, with easy-to-use flight planning that allows for rapid insertion of direct routing, airways, terminal and approach procedures, whatever ATC clears you for. It supports curved-path navigation and true SID/STAR procedures (not just the waypoints).

The VHF radio has our Monitor feature which allows you to monitor your standby Comm frequency without missing anything on your active frequency. Our VOR standby monitor feature is almost like having two separate VOR receivers!

The GNS 480/CNX 80 is full of features that allow you to look up frequencies for Airports, VORs, Flight Service Stations, ATC Centers and more and transfer them to your active or standby frequency at the touch of a button. The powerful processor can re-scale the display to a new range setting virtually immediately, and of course, we would never leave out our NEAREST search facility. The GNS 480 can set-up and fly holding patterns, even unpublished ones, with simple plain English instruction and the roll-steering outputs will actually 'drive' you around holds and procedure turns.

There are more exciting features and capabilities than there is room to list here- Please arrange a demonstration at any of our demo dealers as listed on our web page.
