In portrait mode, the 796 makes an ideal yoke-mounted display for approach or en route charts, as shown here. The map is interactive. Touch a waypoint in most map screens and info on it pops right up. When it’s time to fly the approach, you can pull up that chart with a couple of touches as well.

OK, I have a 496 with XM, and a G-1000 panel in our Columbia 400, but after reviewing your article on the Aera 696 and viewing the You Tube video done by Garmin, I MUST have it. Going to order it today.
