By now every owner of an N-registered aircraft knows that January 01, 2020 is the FAA’s deadline for compliance with its ADS-B equipage mandate. And while that may seem like plenty of time to get your aircraft done, truth is, it’s not. Why?
Why You Need to Schedule Your ADS-B Installation Today
Key Takeaways:
- The FAA's January 1, 2020, ADS-B equipage deadline is critical, with nearly 110,000 U.S. private aircraft still needing upgrades.
- A severe bottleneck exists due to limited avionics shops and technicians, leading to significant installation backlogs.
- Common assumptions that the FAA will extend the deadline, prices will drop, or new low-cost solutions will emerge are highly unlikely.
- Aircraft owners are urged to schedule their ADS-B installation immediately to ensure compliance and avoid illegal flight post-deadline.
