I'd like to consider the Avidyne GPS and the King txp. It may to be hard to do that and meet the deadline. All the US manufacturers are working to a 2020 deadline for UAT units (with ES units as a second priority), not our 2016 deadline.
But, while its a good thing, it would be better value (as far as I'm concerned) if we had gone with ADSB-IN.
And, I can't see how my safety will be improved at all. I can see that AsA will save money. I can see that is makes controllers life easier. But outside the primary control steps I can't see that it makes my flight any safer or that traffic separation will be handled any differently because of the mix of non ADS-B VFR traffic.
If we were serious, we'd mandate it on all aircraft and subsidise implementation like the US.
