BIZAV INTELLIGENCE MANDATES
44 AVBUYERMAGAZINE– July 2018 http://www.AVBUYER.com Aircraft Index see Page 129
he Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)
requires all aircraft flying in controlled
airspace to be equipped with ADS-B Out
technology to modernize the US national
airspace system by January 1, 2020.
If you can fast-forward to January 1, 2020, let’s
imagine you have missed your opportunity to get
your aircraft ADS-B compliant in time. Your aircraft is
effectively grounded. What can you do now?
Perhaps you will arrange to have your aircraft
equipped with ADS-B Out sometime after January 1,
- But you’ll be joining a queue – it’s by no means
going to be a quick fix. Part of that may be
exacerbated by the following: We learned from the
FAA website that not all installed ADS-B Out systems
have been tested. As shown in Table A: All US Aircraft
Equipage & Avionics Performance Data, 6,702 (or
11.7%) of the ADS-B Out installs are not compliant as
of June 1, 2018.
Don’t get caught out. The FAA has a tool called
Compliance Monitor for checking ADS-B functionality
once installed and determining whether the system is
working properly. Learn more at:

With less than 18 months until the ADS-B Out mandate requires it, what
are the alternatives that you can plan for now? Mike Chase and Mike Foye
