The 560 is the most feature-rich navigator in the aera lineup. It combines a more advanced list of automotive and piloting capabilities with higher-resolution 9 arc-second terrain/obstacle graphics that yield more than 11 times the onscreen resolution than the standard 30 arc-second versions.

The internal GPS updates at a rate of 5 times per second (5 Hz), which allows your moving map and flight data to display smoothly and continuously. Optional SiriusXM Satellite Weather¹ lets you reference detailed NEXRAD imaging and METARs data, as well as current reports on precipitation, lightning, winds aloft, airport terminal forecasts and more. Weather graphics can be overlaid on the moving-map display. Optional SiriusXM Satellite Radio gives you more than 170 channels of digital audio entertainment (XM subscription required). The  smart antenna required for SiriusXM services is provided as an optional accessory. The simplicity of a single integrated cabling solution for power, music and datalink weather antenna options makes for easy, clutter-free aera connectivity in the cockpit.
