if only the low level ADSB mandate and subsidy got up........... but of course those very guilty folk who helped stop it
... seems out of place here, but unchallenged and some folk need reminding that there was NEVER a "subsidy" only a recommendation by a think tank of "dreamers and enthusiasts" and any push for it's premature introduction at low level WILL need a mandate for it to work to its full potential at considerable cost to GA.

have $2.50 on the RAA guy with no idea what CTA is, and probably all 4 are the same one!

Of course a PPL has never violated controlled airspace.
