I'll try to do some counting of Southwest traffic stats on my ADS-B receiver in the Bay Area.
My Phoenix has a Dynon Skyview EFIS with ADS-B in/out. Is there anyway to tell the
target is a military aircraft? Same question for the Powerflarm in my ASH 26 E -
can I determine a target is a military aircraft (I have the simple rectangular
display that just shows little triangles)?

The way I tell they are military is: if they look very much like an F16 or F18, and flying in formation below me, then I conclude they are military. Or If it looks a lot like a C5A. Seen both of those a few times up pretty close, and they never appear on any display. A lot of airliners, and most biz jets appear without fail. 2G thinks all these aircraft will be grounded come Jan 1, but somehow I doubt that.
