Plan to learn about the airspace where ADS-B Out will be required along with an overview of ADS-B requirements per airspace. We will explain what is needed for an aircraft to comply with the ADS-B rule; field approval guidance and prevention of common installation errors. With ADS-B operational across the country, pilots in equipped aircraft have access to air traffic services that provide a new level of safety, better situational awareness, and more efficient search and rescue.
We will also describe how ADS-B works; the difference between ADS-B Out and ADS-B In; TIS-B, FIS-B and ADS-R; and how to get ADS-B services. ADS-B ground stations are operational across the nation, broadcasting traffic, weather, and flight information to appropriately equipped aircraft. Air traffic control facilities are rapidly being updated to provide ADS-B surveillance services.
