ENROUTE INFORMATION
Airbox gives you the facility to display a wealth of enroute information.

Extended runway centrelines
Airspace warning

EXTENDED RUNWAY CENTRELINES
Because Airbox use a full Jeppesen database, we are able to display Extended runway centrelines.

Lines appear intelligently as you approach your destination

FULLSCREEN MODE
Cut back the clutter to get the best possible view of the surrounding area.
Two modes, the first removes just the buttons at the bottom of the screen, the second gives you the full screen map
Fullscreen mode retains the airspace warning (and optionally relative position and height warning) but removes all other information

TRACK UP MODE
Rotate the map around the aircraft.
For pilots who prefer it, Airbox has the option to rotate the map around the aircraft, instead of always having North at the top of the screen.
Airbox also repositions the aircraft towards the bottom of the screen in this mode, to afford the pilot the best possible view of the map ahead.

TERRAIN WARNING
Airbox has used data derived from NASA to make a more accurate terrain feature than any other portable aviation GPS. This allows much better awareness of what lies ahead.
Terrain profile and current height figure display
Height profile colours according to the height of terrain relative to current height
