What’s a good gps for aviation with weather updates?

Posted by admin

Jimmy R asked:


My dad just got his pilot liscense and wants to get a GPS with weather updates for his plane. I have been going through alot of different systems and am having a hard time finding one specifically geared for aviation with weather updates, I would like to go below $1,000, but if I can’t get a good one for that I would be willing to go higher. Also, what are service options for weather updates? I know of XM are there any others?
