Garmin has introduced cost-effective Garmin Navigation Database information for South America through its newly expanded Americas OnePak, which offers coverage in North, Central, and South America. OnePak provides database updates across all Garmin avionics and a portable for a single aircraft.

The Americas OnePak, available for compatible Garmin avionics systems for $724, includes the Garmin Navigation Database, terrain, and basemap, as well as the airport directory, IFR en route charts, VFR sectional charts, obstacles, and SafeTaxi. Garmin’s database also has instrument procedures, frequencies, and airport data. The OnePak subscription also provides existing Garmin Pilot subscribers with an upgrade to Garmin Pilot IFR Premium that includes coverage in South America.

Garmin’s navigation database and OnePaks are compatible with the GTN 650/750 and GNS 430W/530W navcoms; G500 TXi/G600 TXi/G700 TXi/G500H TXi and G500/G600/G500H flight displays; and G1000, G1000NXi, G2000, G3000, G5000, G1000H, and G5000H integrated flight decks. Compatibility is also available for some of Garmin’s experimental flight displays and portables.

The new South American database can also be purchased for $149 for a single update and $399 for an annual subscription for the Garmin GTN 650/750 or GNS 430W/530W.
