Line Up and Wait
One of our planes just got a Gtn-750 with abs-b. I have only used it for a hour of flying and am already loving the benefits of it.
For the flight there I had used flight following, atc was constantly giving me traffic that I knew I had, and it suddenly didn't feel like as helpful of a resource as it used to be.
I would imagine I would still use flight following over long distances but shorter trips around the Bay Area it just doesn't seem necessary with full abs-b capability. I suppose after all that is the idea, to decrease atc workload and increase safety
I'm curious to hear other people's experience and opinions are
