The benefits of reduced separation standards due to ADS-B across the country outside radar coverage isn't something that is readily apparent to operators.

They are flying closer and level changes can be accommodated far more readily than was possible using pre-ADS-B procedural separation.

Flex tracks & UPRs are often vastly different from the published route structure which just tend to be fairly similar to Great Circle tracks, so the benefits of flex tracks & UPRs to operators have been significant.

Midnight,

The benefits of reduced separation standards due to ADS-B across the country outside radar coverage isn't something that is readily apparent to operators.
On the contrary, it is very apparent to the analysis of major operators, who have a continuous dialog with various CNS/ATM providers, if it is there.

They are flying closer and level changes can be accommodated far more readily than was possible using pre-ADS-B procedural separation.
Theoretically true, but in practice, the difference between AUSEP standards and ADS-B has not been apparent, as there is just not enough traffic over most of the Australian FIRs to make a difference.

For the short distances of the major routes BNE-SYD-MEL, it's hardly applicable, but RVSM did make a measurable difference in costs.

Flex tracks & UPRs are often vastly different from the published route structure which just tend to be fairly similar to Great Circle tracks, so the benefits of flex tracks & UPRs to operators have been significant.
True, but not necessarily dependent on ADS-B.

Tootle pip!!

The continued introduction of more flex tracks and UPRs is dependent on ADS-B.

Is there any measurable safety improvement to come from the GA $30 million ADSB mandate coming in next February ?

What safety issue are they addressing ?

Just imagine it's 2022 and Australia doesn't have ADSB. Then just take whatever anecdotal evidence you would use while you're on your high horse touting how amazing and safe the American system was and how we're all doomed to die due to the regulator not implementing it.

I thought the AOPA Project Eureka concept was OK.

That is our mandate follows that of the USA but comes in 12 months later so Australia can get the benefit from the lowest cost equipment.

Lower priced solution?

Maybe this is the price drop you have been waiting for........

I note a CJ3 is not on the list!!
As for "price drop", Progressive, old mate, you certainly have a sense of humour.

Yep, I can imagine that. Where's the problem? I'd be richer and as a GA IFR aircraft owner operator my safety will not be degraded one iota.

ADS-B is a tax on private IFR flying.

Progressive,
The way I read it, that (along with a few competitors) is only for "legacy" installations, not the integrated Garmin cockpits of the Rockwell Collins later ProLine equivalent.
