What’s the value difference between GTN and GNS?

Pilots who’ve flown the Garmin GNS 430W are now finding even more to love in the touchscreen GTN 650.

For years, the trusty Garmin GNS 430W series has proven to be a game-changing, all-in-one comm/nav/GPS package that does a lot of things amazingly well. So why, loyal owners ask, should they consider trading up to the newer GTN 650 touchscreen systems? The short answer: You still get the great things the GNS 430 can do – PLUS you get a much simpler, centralized and more intuitive user interface, a “shallower” menu structure, and a wealth of innovative features and capabilities that take graphical flight planning, systems management and GPS guidance technology to whole new levels of utility. Touchscreen control not only streamlines tuning and mode selection – but, in effect, lets pilots utilize the GTN 650 as a virtual flight management system.
