Summary
254 Max talks about vertical navigation and the many different ways that VFR and IFR pilots can use it to enhance their flying, and uses the Garmin 430, G1000, and Perspective as examples. Vertical navigation becomes more important as you step into aircraft with bigger engines that fly higher and faster. VFR pilots can use it to manage pattern entries and IFR pilots use it on arrivals and approaches.
