FAA ADS-B Propaganda Video

So the part being mandated is the part that provides value to the
population in general.

Negative. Don't expect the general GA pilot to equip with ADS-B In.

At least some part will, even if with the next generation of those little
portable traffic devices that plug into portable GPSs.

You still need the up front avionics which at this point are
expensive.

But we still accrue value even if only by reducing the cost, and
increasing coverage, of ATC "RADAR".

Who is "we"? Expecting me to pay thousands to reduce the FAA costs is
wrong. That would be like FORCING you to pay $10,000 to same me some
money.

There is no planned improvement in coverage. I alreday asked that of
the FAA. There may be some incidental improvement but not enough to
cover all the gaps in the mountainous areas where I fly.

Even then I have the option to fly higher to avoid the cost of ADS-B
Out.

As much as people talk about improvements no one has shown a
substantial and quantifiable improvement for me to justify spending
the money on ADS-B Out avionics.

The only possible benefits are for the FAA and maybe to the airlines
but I doubt even that will happen.
