Dick,
I sincerly hope industry is able to secure the subsidy, aren't you an ADSB nay sayer ?.
If the subsidy does or does not occur, when ADSB happens it will considerably reduce the chances of accidents between IFR aircraft and anyone else.
Yair ?.
The cheaper ADSB unit ( the sleeper type unit in the back ), will be considerably cheaper than $10K, won't it Dick ?.
Like all technology it will get cheaper as it is more commonly used and more providers enter the market, why not go and talk to your mates at Uniden, a joint venture you could personally make some cash from ?.
