A certain large airline advised that they paid AsA's bills and as such they wanted the savings passed back to them, not used to fit GA with ADSB.
Fair enough too! User pays, eh Dick?!

Say I pay $400m to my service provider because that's what it cost them to provide the service. Now the service provider finds some new technology so he can provide the service for only $200m. Why should I keep paying the service provider $400m? Or in this case, why should I continue to pay $400m so that $200m can be used to pay for gadgets for other pilots/aircraft? If those gadgets are deemed necessary, then the taxpayer pays, not me.

TCAS cannot be unserviceable for planned flight throuhg E or G airspace.
