GPS 150 XL
GPS 150 XL offers moving map display feature.
Offering virtually the same en route features and funtions of the IFR approach certified GPS 155 system, the non-TSO'd GPS 150 takes VFR navigation to a higher level of performance - at a money saving price. With it's bright, easy to read vacuum flourescent display and comprehensive Jeppesen database, the GPS 150 puts a world of easy access capabilities at your fingertips.
Flight plan memory lets you store up to 1,000 user waypoints and 20 reversible flight plans with up to 31 waypoints each. And the Autostore function provides instant waypoint and route storage as you fly.
Direct-To keystroke lets you instantly set course to any waypoint you select. A built-in course deviation indicator (CDI) on the display shows your aircraft's position in relation to the selected course.
User friendly messages provide critical status and warning. Plus, you can add 9 time/data reminder messages for scheduled maintainance or other time-critical events. Also create up to 9 checklists with up to 30 items in each.

Trip planning mode lets you analyse distance, time and fuel requirements for your flight. Compute sunrise and sunset times at your destination. Calculate density altitude before takeoff, and true airspeed as you fly.
Vertical navigation mode guides your climb profile to cruise altitude and helps you hit step-down fixes or altitude minima on descent to your destination airport. Minimum safe altitude identifies MSA for obstruction clearance along, and in proximity to, your flight path.
Nearest waypoint function tracks and recalls the nine closest airports, intersections, VORs, NDBs, user waypoints and SUAs; also the nearest FSS and frequency. A built-in, rechargeable battery will automatically power the GPS 150 for up to two hours, in the event of aircraft power loss.
Less than 6" deep, the GPS 150 fits easily into any avionics stack. Of course it interfaces with most autopilot, fuel flow, moving map, HSIs and other avionics equipment.
