You may see it flying here soon enough but

- there won't be any traffic data via Mode S

- until transponders are mandatory, any TCAD-type functionality will be largely worthless

- no weather links

- you will need to fit a remotely mounted ADF+DME

Are you talking about FADEC on a petrol engine? It appears closer on the diesels but they are far from reliable at present.
