Garmin launched its new D2 Air GPS smartwatch for pilots, which includes multiple tools for planning and in-flight use. Serving to connect seamlessly between a pilot’s flying life and ground-based existence, the D2 Air features weather, direct-to navigation, airport info, flight logging, and a pulse oximeter. The watch displays in several time zones (including Zulu time)—and gives the pilot the ability to immediately call up metars and tafs among other aviation data. It comes preloaded with a worldwide database, and allows for flight plan transfer with Garmin Pilot.
