With Aspen's announcement that the RTX-345 is now capable of interfacing with the Aspen PFD/MFD for FIS-B and TIS-B, I am revisiting my decision of going with the L3 9000+ (unit with active traffic). I would like to hear other's views on the future of ADS-B compliance. From my understanding, ADS-B compliance will be required if you plan on flying above 10,000' and if you are in any of the transponder required classes (Class B, C. etc.) or the Mode C rings. In theory then, if you don't fly above 10,000', are outside of Mode C rings, don't fly into Class B or C airspace, you don't need an ADS-B solution. It is possible that there will be Mode C only planes flying around as well those who don't have any transponder. What I don't know is if after 2020, how many of these planes will be flying around without ADS-B solutions? And even if there are, will the ADS-B TIS-B capture them? I know from now until 2020 it would make sense to have active traffic, but will it make sense after 2020? My wallet is at your disposal...
