| Subject: | Garmin 496 vs 396... |
Robbie:
Personally I feel strongly about having redundancy for all critical systems
in IFR. I use 2 separate EFIS units in my -8A just for this reason. The xx6
Garmins have a nice panel page but (in my opinion) not really capable of
serving as a panel (even partial) in IMC.
My two cents.

On this note, not having used either (I have a 196) what impact do you think
the higher refresh, etc. of the 496 vs the 396 would have on it's utility as
an emergency IFR backup.
My own experience with the instruments simulation screen on the 196 leads me
to think that a faster response would greatly improve the device's utility
for such an emergency.
Of course my extremely limited actual instrument time (not being IFR
qualified that's a good thing) makes me want to avoid jumping to my own
conclusions.
Any thoughts on that? I realize it's a little early to be planning my panel!

John,
Wx is also possible with the Garmin 396.

Thanks for the advice. I tend to agree, to the extent that I don't
have any experience and therefor have an uninformed opinion.
I was thinking of the panel as more of a "worst case scenario" total
systems failure option.
