"[...] The Garmin GSR 56 gives you access to on-demand global weather information, text/voice communications and near real-time position tracking through the Iridium satellite network. The Iridium network provides seamless global coverage nearly everywhere your aircraft can go – even in locations not previously served by other satellite networks. Simply set up voice and data service (subscription required) and start enjoying added safety and convenience on every flight.
With the GSR 56, you can finally enjoy the safety-enhancing benefits of on-demand satellite weather when operating internationally. Weather data includes Meteorological Aviation Reports (METARs) that provide current temperature, dew point, precipitation, wind speed and more, as well as Terminal Aerodrome Forecasts (TAFs) that show predicted weather for up to 30 hours in advance. Throughout most of Europe, Canada and the U.S., the GSR 56 can also receive high-resolution radar imagery, which displays in full color on the G3000, G1000 and G600/G500/G500H series of displays. Additional radar coverage areas are being added continuously. [...]"
Hört sich doch sehr vielversprechend an. Wahrscheinlich verwenden sie die gleiche Wetterquelle, die auch Avidyne für Europa verwendet. Welche das konkret ist, wird man vermutlich nur über Insider herausfinden können.
Besten Gruß,
Jens
