@pba_target. I agree. Although I want ADS-B and Flarm-in (there are plenty of gliders around here) I'm more interested in SkyEcho's ADS-B emissions, as I'd like to be seen, especially by the occasional fast movers. I have no idea whether or not Leeming, Topcliffe or Linton have ADS-B Surveillance capability, or for that matter whether the regional airport zone/approach units do and can see me for traffic reporting purposes.
Yeah, to be honest with SkyEcho /similar being cheap and walk on, I genuinely don't know why we wouldn't mandate minimum battery powered EC for everything that flies, go the way of the USA. Display on a tablet/smartphone and I'd say you've just significantly cut the chance of mid-air. ADS-B in is such a step change in SA in the cockpit (if properly displayed).
