How much does it cost to maintain GPS satelites versus land based transmiters?

I,ll take it as proposed and follow the rules. Why gripe about a gift horse? This will satisfy 99.9%.

Mode-S extended squitter? What transmits AdSB in this config? Its What the high flyers use and some us low guys also. I dont see transponders going away, especially as radar backup in the terminal area.

Yes, its part of transponder. Also FAA can monitor validity in use and after implementation date will tell you if its hosed up, not ATC another compliance unit. Now you can request a report from them to get a status of your ADSB transmissions.

Go to http://aeroclub.rt.free.fr/docs/Garmin%20150.pdf Maintenance section in the manual, page 53, might apply.

Vecroed the floor in my Mooney, now its easy to pull carpet out and clean once a year.

At a non tower airport it is: "runway in use"

80 miles south at KCLS its $3.77

Garmin Pilot adsb interface only works with Garmin products, ie GDL39

From an old COBOL programmer: 12 loaves of bread. :)

find out what repairs will cost you if the old HSI breaks, you may change your mind

If you,re going to need ADSB out where you fly add a garmin 330es transponder for about $4k and you,ll be all set. 650 hooks to 330 for adsb out, also gives tis traffic on the gps

That wouldnt work. You need a medical when acting as safety pilot when someone is using a hood. Cant get an inst rating without logging inst time

You gotta be kidding, this is a maintenance item and needs to be logged in aircraft records when performed. where in the world did you get the idea this would self upfpdate, point us to documentation
