40000 ft altitude with the Garmin Nuvi 265WT GPS on a commercial flight / plane

We sneaked the Garmin Nuvi 265WT GPS onto a commercial flight during take off and at cruising altitude to see how well the tracking would be. Just like with the private jet in the previous video, the Nuvi performed like a champ. Although this time, we didn’t reach the 600+ mph but did get up to around 40000 feet.

500+ mph with the Garmin Nuvi 265WT GPS during flight

We took the Garmin Nuvi 265WT GPS from take off to cruising altitude and speed in a Cessna 750. The tracking worked great and we saw the unit go up to 625 mph although the video only showed around 500 mph. It was fun comparing the Nuvi to the in-flight map because we got to see our flight moving over roads! However, while the speed were comparable, we noticed that after above 10000 feet, the altitude didn’t match the in-flight map by as much as several thousand feet (at 25000 ft). We assume the in-flight system is more accurate. See the video response titled “40000 ft altitude …” video where we take the same GPS but recorded its usage on a commercial flight. www.youtube.com

    RoqyBT GPS – Navigon UK – Ipod Touch Sat Nav

    I bought the bluetooth gps receiver off ebay for £10 and also the roqyBT software from cydia that cost me around £7 for the full version. This software enables me to use any bluetooth gps receiver on the market to use sat nav on my ipod touch. In order to do this, you will need a jailbroken device. I have a Ipod Touch 2G with the winterboard theme from cydia ‘Leopard theme’. I have used TomTom and navigon on this device and im sure that there are more navigational apps out there that will be compatible in this method. i think this is a much better alternative than the other ‘gps360 from orange gadgets’.
