Just a note for us poor folks; I have an Garmin e-map. I purchased the topographical down load program for it, and while it doesn't have all the fly-type information, it'll get you there and back for a nominal fee. The moving map is great, and the topo information is so detailed that it'll get you right down to the streets in any town. If you take the time to preprogram your way points, it's hard to beat for a couple of hundred bucks. When I flew to Phoenix 16 months ago, I used it as primary navigation, and the vor only as a backup. And, I can take it in my boat, in my car, on hikes, etc. Larry ----- Original Message ----- From: "Paul M.
