Why do some parts indicate "REQUEST" or “RFQ” on the Southeast Aerospace website?
In relation to NE (New) parts, many OEMs change their prices and availability without any notice to dealers or the industry. Therefore, through the REQUEST or RFQ indication, we ask that customers contact us for the most accurate price and availability.
In relation to SV & OH parts, the used parts aftermarket in the aviation industry is not an infinite supply. It is a dynamic, constantly changing market that is significantly affected by and susceptible to highs and lows in supply and demand. Therefore, although we attempt to, at times, we are unable to predict the exact moment when an item may be available. Once again, through the REQUEST or RFQ indication on our website, we ask that customers contact us for the most current and accurate price and availability.
When did Garmin discontinue support for the GPS-155XL, GNC-250XL, and GNC-300XL?
Garmin issued Service Advisory No. 1930 Rev B on August 13, 2020 which stated that repair services and service parts were discontinued for the GPS-155XL, GNC-250XL, and GNC-300XL units.
Why is the altitude on my GNC-250XL different than the altitude on my altimeter?
An altimeter does not measure altitude on the GNC-250XL. The altimeter in the aircraft measures air pressure. The altimeter is calibrated to display a certain change in altitude based on a change in air pressure. For every inch of mercury pressure change, the altimeter displays a change of approx. 1000 ft. of altitude. The GPS does not use air pressure to determine altitude and is not subject to the pressure errors in determining altitude. Therefore, the GPS derived altitude is almost always more accurate than an altimeter. Since everyone uses a pressure-based system to determine altitude, it is integral to utilize a pressure sensitive altimeter to ensure required vertical separation.
How do I update the database in my Garmin GPS?
For handheld GPS receivers, database updates can be ordered and downloaded directly through Garmin's Internet site.
For panel mount GPS receivers, all database cards and computer downloads (if applicable) must be ordered through Jeppesen. Contact Jeppesen at www.jeppesen.com for more information.
