aera® 660

The bright, sunlight-readable 5-inch touchscreen display has intuitive pinch to zoom and panning controls and can be positioned in portrait or landscape orientations.

Quickly and reliably acquire GPS and GLONASS satellite constellations to display rich, interactive, dynamically drawn and customizable aviation maps.

Creating flight plans is easy. Enter a starting waypoint and destination, then insert segments.

A Direct-to key on the screen lets you quickly enter a direct course for any selected waypoint. A menu of nearest airports and flight plan waypoints makes for easy entry.

View ground references — including airports, cities, terrain, obstacles and more — on the dynamic map display to easily determine your position on VFR flights.

View georeferenced VFR sectional charts for the U.S., Canada and Europe.

Use IFR map mode to display and navigate on high or low enroute airways. Touch to view minimum enroute altitudes and distances between intersections.

With an optional power/data cable, you can find and upload frequencies to select radios, including most of our GTR^™ series COMM radios, GNC^® series NAV/COMM radios and more.

Interface the aera 660 navigator with the GFC^™ 500 digital autopilot for coupled lateral and VFR vertical guidance, and transfer flight plans wirelessly to select Garmin systems.

With available Garmin ADS-B “In” equipage solutions, aera 660 displays ADS-B traffic targets as well as subscription-free U.S. weather data — either wirelessly or with an optional power/data cable.

Patented TargetTrend relative motion tracking on aera 660 gives pilots faster, more intuitive ways to judge traffic closure rates and trajectories — so you can identify the greatest threat.

Providing a dynamic display of ADS-B-equipped aircraft and ground vehicles, this technology helps pilots avoid traffic conflicts within the airport environment.

When paired with an optional GDL^® 51 or GDL 52 datalink receiver, the aera 660 navigator can incorporate SiriusXM satellite weather coverage — plus audio entertainment features.

Upon landing, georeferenced SafeTaxi diagrams on aera 660 automatically help track your location on hundreds of airports and even identify published hot spots.

Our patented Smart Airspace guidance highlights the airspace nearest your current altitude so you can quickly identify your location relative to the airspace around you.

3D Vision technology gives you a virtual 3D behind-the-aircraft perspective view of surrounding terrain, obstacles and airports as well as traffic (when equipped with ADS-B “In”).

See your position above terrain and obstacles on the map and profile view. Obstacles within 1,000’ (or a pilot-customizable height) are highlighted yellow, while obstacles within 100’ are highlighted red.

Our WireAware wire-strike avoidance technology graphically overlays hazardous obstacle transmission lines that span rivers and canyons right on the moving map.

Optional maps allow pilots to enter street intersections and other non-aviation waypoints for easy navigation.

The aera 660 GPS navigator fulfills the role of an electronic flight bag, with georeferenced charts, a PDF viewer, E6B computer, weight-and-balance calculator, logbook and more.

Update databases at home via Wi-Fi connectivity. Stay current throughout the year with a single annual subscription that includes all the databases you need.

Fuel price data can be overlaid on the map — or viewed on the airport directory page — for at-a-glance awareness of the prices in an area.

Touch an airport symbol on the map to view its airport information page, and see runways, frequencies, NOTAMs, FBOs and more.

Get up to 4 hours of flight time on each charge, or easily power it in-flight with a mini USB cable.

aera 660 combines many of the capabilities of panel-mounted avionics with a value-packed, purpose-built package. It’s ready to fly, right out of the box.
