Default TIS and What could have been

God, I wish I knew how to stop this decomissioning of TIS before ADS-B
is widely available. My life (and maybe yours) may depend on it.


According to the most recent AOPA magazine, TIS in this form will be a
distant memory as of 2012, when the last of the radar sites is upgraded to
the latest technology.

I guess I'll toss my Garmin Mode-S transponder into the same heap of
garbage as my WSI weather receiver since they both represent good
technology that became obsolete.
