Can you indicate why
croppies in G are going to do with their beaut ADSB
To qualify for ADS-B you must require fitment of transponder for phase 1. From what height in G are these croppies dumping their super? Or perhaps they are dropping UAV GPS guided "super" bombs from above 10,000' to qualify?

For phase 2, currently deferred, you must qualify for radio fitment. How many croppies in G can demonstrate required radio fitment?

But, good point about the croppies overall - they believe firmly in GPS for precision accuracy - no? And most will probably find a way to qualify for ADS-B so they don't get hit by Bob Murphie at low level on his way to Boulia.
