Garmin 695
The Garmin GPSMAP 695 (Garmin 695) has aviation-only navigation and mapping features - The Garmin 695 is Garmin's ultimate portable MFD. Similar to the 696, the Garmin 695 comes with a large 7-inch diagonal screen and detailed electronic charts. The only feature in the 696 that's not included in the 695 is XM Weather.
Bigger is better
The Garmin 695 is sunlight readable during the day as well as at night. And its high-definition 7-inch display is large enough to view an approach plate in its entirety. Similar to other portable GPSMAP units, the Garmin 695 includes soft keys on the bezel around the screen. But unlike other portable units, the GPSMAP 695 has a joystick control that, coupled with the units fast 5 Hz GPS update rate that displays data and graphics smoothly and continuously, makes navigating the pages a breeze.
Got Charts?
The Garmin 695 does! Another new feature included in the 695 is Garmin FliteCharts* and IFR map mode that gives the unit Class 1/Class 2 electronic flight bag (EFB) capability. U.S. NACO departure procedures (DP), standard terminal arrival routes (STARs), approach charts and airport diagrams can now all be viewed and quickly found thanks to FliteCharts. Based on the flight plan, if the current approach is known, the Garmin 695 will even select the correct chart for you. Flying IFR? Simply put the 695 into IFR map mode and it can now show victor airways, jet routes, minimum enroute altitude and leg distance.
Enhanced Situational Awareness
The Garmin 695 features a high-resolution terrain page showing hazards relative to your altitude and a vertical profile of terrain along your route of flight. It comes with a built-in Jeppesen database, and an Americas, Atlantic or Pacific terrain database. It also includes an obstacles database for the U.S. or Europe. Using this information, the 695 displays your flight route over contour terrain mapping. With information from the terrain and obstacles databases, the 695 monitors your current position in relation to surrounding terrain to provide alerts. You can even customize your own minimum clearance levels to receive terrain cautions. The GPSMAP 695 also comes with a realistic "view from space" satellite imagery basemap.
Like other portable aviation GPSMAP devices, the Garmin 695 includes the following enhanced aviation databases:
- Garmin SafeTaxi
Provides detailed taxiway diagrams and position information for over 850 U.S. airports. Preloaded on the unit, this information helps you navigate unfamiliar airports with confidence and shows your aircraft’s exact position on the field.
- AOPA Airport Directory
Offers detailed information for over 5,300 U.S. airports, along with the names and phone numbers of thousands of FBOs. Easily look up taxi services, plan an overnight, and choose fuel stops, plus find ground transportation, lodging, restaurants, local attractions and more.
- Private Airports and Heliports
Provides data on private airports and heliports throughout U.S. and Europe, and materially expands your list of navigation and emergency "nearest" options.
Receive Altitude-Sensitive Alerts
When in the air, Garmin's new Smart Airspace feature on the GPSMAP 695 makes it easier than ever to identify what airspace lies ahead. Smart Airspace automatically highlights airspace close to your current altitude and de-emphasizes airspace away from the current altitude, which gives you increased situational awareness.
