Pre-takeoff checklist
I'm working on my reply to the ADS-B NPRM and have a question which, for the life of me, I can't figure out how to answer. It seems so simple but the usual rocks I look under don't have any data for it:
What percentage of piston powered aircraft are turbocharged?
I'm actually looking for the percentage of the GA fleet that can routinely operate in the flight levels, but figure this is a close enough surrogate after I add in turboprops and turbojets. If anyone has a handle on this question, Ken must. I'll gladly take suggestions from anyone else, too.
Regards,
Joe
