ADS-B Requirements: Pilots Beware!

[@romeo16668]

Clear and concise, great explanation

[@manifestgtr]

I know it can be controversial but I LOVE ads-b. The situational awareness it provides when approaching an airport, for maneuvering practice, etc. is invaluable. When I first started flying as a young kid, no such thing existed…all you had was your mental picture, your spotting ability and ATC traffic advisories. Granted, all of these are still of the utmost importance…nothing replaces the view you get outside. But when you’re downwind above a busy, urban airport and you know ATC is about to ask you if you have that tiny, gray, practically camouflaged 152 in sight…ads-b gives you a previously unprecedented heads up.

Now answer these questions, a plane under part 103 is a vehicle not an aircraft, can it go where aircraft that need adsb can go ? under 103 can adsb be installed in the vehicle ? the adsb needs a registration number, typically n, the law references the registration or ORGANIZATION id's, the EAA registers 103 vehicles and provides an E number, can a 103 vehicle register with EAA and use an E number in the ADSB ? there is a huge debate on all of this and it has not been addressed via the faa. some say the adsb regs are meant to further limit part 103 by excluding them from adsb, further, the new regs coming out to support air taxis will completely wipe out the low altitude airspace the faa expected 103 to operate in, with the lower portion to surface used by toy drones, the next level for air taxis, and then the low level for ga (min ga altitude agl) and up for ga. currently in G space a 103 vehicle might be as high as 9,999 feet, that means all the people using adsb, who are no longer looking out the window, cause they see adsb as tesla self drive, are a threat.

This question is best answered by your local FSDO.

Reality is that we’re all going to need to spend a lot of money upgrading our rides to be able to continue flying them.

@@Drcraigfreeman and one system outage server outage gps outage and all the ga that stopped looking out the windows will become a huge threat

u cant operate an ultralight in class A,B,C,D and surface class E airspace without prior authorization. reference part 103.17

[@edbenelli5374]

So, why do I still need a transponder and an ELT? Seems duplicative. And expensive. And unnecessary.

[@mastrkents]

transponder and ELT still work during GPS outages
