NOTE: If charts are not downloaded to the device they will not be available for
viewing without a data connection. Download all applicable charts for your
planned flight including alternates.
NOTE: Chart files can be very large and may take some time to download. It
is recommended that downloads be done over Wi-Fi. Additional charges may
apply for downloads done over a cellular network.
NOTE: With the availability of electronic charts in Garmin Pilot, it is still
advisable to carry another source of charts on board the aircraft.
The Downloads Menu is divided into two sections. The Navigation & Airports section
allows for downloading US Navigation Data, Airport Info, and SafeTaxi information.
The Procedures & Charts section allows for downloading VFR Sectional Charts,
WAC Charts, IFR Low and High Altitude Charts, and Instrument Procedures for the
Continental US as well as Alaska and Hawaii.
The Downloads Menu is divided into two columns. The Left column shows items
available for download as indicated by the blue down arrows ( ) or blue text. The
right column is the Download Queue, shows the download status and a list of queued
downloads.

Charts display the Chart Selection Screen, which is a map showing the charts as
outlined areas. To select all available charts tap the file folder in the lower left corner
and tap 'Select All' from the list or tap the outlined area for the desired chart(s). After
