As a newbie that is not great!

I couldn't agree more. This is, IMNSHO, a major screwup by MS..............

Anything to tell me how to use the Garmin for IFR flight would be a bonus!

Oh wow! I had no idea people still printed out manuals. I last did that in about 1994. And I last read a manual in 1989. 😉

I do hope that was sarcasm 'bout it being a major screwup. About 1 out of a 1000 purchasers will care.

No doubt there will soon be 3rd party offerings.

But wouldn't be nice if the OP could print one? If the OP want's one in print form that's his business, not yours nor mine, The fact is that not including ANY  type of manual (either printed or digital) is a major MS screwup. And I'm not being sarcastic. I've been around this business long enough to know that the lack of any sort of written documentation is going to cause a lot of folks to just give up in frustration.

I like having a manual I can peruse whilst in bed etc. But unless I csn flick through some sort of manual (on screen or paper) I wont know about things I don;t know about as I wouldnt know they existed!

Shouldn't need much of a manual if they make it intuitive and provide enough tips and help in the interface. But given the amount of people I see struggling to map their controls, it would suggest not.

There's already several instructive videos out there with step-by-step procedures, in lieu of a manual:  These include initial set-ups, and basic flight operations...   

And the newbie knows this how..................?

As it happens I do know this and have been looking at a few excellent videos on Youtube (Squirrel?) But I still like looking at something with an index!

I get messages like 'Altimeter Incorrectly Set' (I paraphrase). How am I meant to know what that means, why its there and what I'm supposed to do about it.

Many programs do not come suppled with a manual, but do either have a downloadable PDF, a comprehensive on line help system, or both
