Differences Between the aera 760 and a Tablet
The Advantages of the aera® 760 portable GPS over a Tablet Include:
Being engineered to work effectively in the cockpit. The aera 760 utilizes a vivid, sunlight-readable touchscreen display, which is useful in a bright cockpit and will not overheat as easily as a tablet.
The capability of utilizing a hard-wired RS-232 connection, which allows for faster and more stable data transfers. A hard-wire connection will also allow you to provide GPS position to an autopilot, ELT, or sending frequencies to a radio, etc.
Other Features of the aera 760 Include:
Adding airways and IFR approaches, arrivals, departures and more to your route.
