T tracy Well Known Member Friend Jul 16, 2014 #1 I was told that Garmin will update your 496 for free at Oshkosh. Is it a software update or a subscription update,IE airports, terrain ?

Mel Legacy Member Mentor Jul 16, 2014 #2 I'm sure it is software updates. They are always free. I just did mine on line. If it IS terrain and/or obstacles, please let me know!

J Joker Active Member Jul 17, 2014 #3 Update Garmin updates the software free, not data. For that, you'll need to go inside one of the hangars to one of the avionics vendors. Getting both updates is quick and easy and costs around $50 IIRC.
