VNAV on IFD 440 vs. GTN650

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Is it possible to have the functionality of the GTN 650? Selectable VNAV on waypoints processable by the DFC90? This will be helpful for those airfield in Europe without GPS approach subscribed but that are in conditions to be used as described.Also they have a nice feature: once you plan to land in an airfield contained in the database the GTN650 will calculate the approach circuit to the airfield (based on the pubblished altitude datas inside the database) and it calculates an approach procedure and a circuit at a proper altitude.

What do you think? Avidyne is always a step formward, (always), but this feature is clever and helpful and seems to be an Avidyne solution, NOT a Garmin solution.

Best regards

	You mean the "VFR Approach" feature of the GTN series, right? That would be great to have!
