In an effort to spur adoption of ADS-B avionics ahead of the 2020 equipment mandate, the FAA yesterday announced a rebate program for owners of U.S.-registered piston airplanes — but as you might guess, there’s a catch.
FAA Announces ADS-B Rebate Program
Key Takeaways:
- The FAA announced a $500 rebate program for owners of U.S.-registered piston airplanes installing new ADS-B Out avionics.
- The incentive program begins in September and is limited to the first 20,000 aircraft or one year, whichever comes first.
- This initiative aims to accelerate the adoption of ADS-B technology ahead of the December 31, 2019, equipment mandate, as many general aviation owners have been slow to equip.
