uAvionix is taking its tailBeacon ADS-B Out solution to the next step announcing yesterday at Sun n’ Fun that the micro-electronics maker filed its TSO package for the device with the FAA Aircraft Certification Office (ACO). Like the earlier TSOed skyBeacon for wingtip installations, the tailBeacon requires very little effort to install, even less than the skyBeacon. uAvionix COO Ryan Braun said, “it takes 33 percent less time than the skyBeacon in fact.”
