COOL NEW GARMIN MFD

Avionics giant Garmin introduced its GDU 370 and GDU 375 multi-function displays (MFDs). Very very nice. They're aimed at the light sport and experimental retrofit market, are seven inches high (in portrait, not landscape config for easier fit in the panel).
---A few highlights from the handouts
  • based on Garmin’s GPSMAP 695 and GPSMAP 696
  • designed to network with other Garmin products to provide complete primary flight display (PFD) and MFD capability
  • incorporate Garmin’s latest technology for easy readability day or night
---Worth checking out for it's flexibility in designing your panel and for upgrade potential for future Garmin tech. This unit was mounted in a Flight Design CTLS and I want one.
