Default CBS story on ADS-B

There was a nice piece on CBS Sunday Morning about ADS-B that I
thought covered the topic well. I believe it's a good system for our
changing times, but I sure hope the price comes down.

As usual, this story is misleading to the point of deceptive
statements. Read my review of the ADS-B NPRM at

StopADS-B.org/ADS.htm

Just one example: The upper cost to a GA aircraft is around $17,000
US, not the $6000 quoted in the CBS article. There are many other
egregious errors in the article.
