Default Parowan midair?

I suppose the term 'low cost' is relative and depends upon whether you
compare it to the cost of your sailplane or your life.

FLARM is useless unless everyone is equipped. *That is NOT going to
happen in the US. *Low cost ADS-B could be available tomorrow if the FAA
would certify the units. *NAVWORX and MITRE have working prototypes that
could go into production overnight if we can get the FAA to get off
their but.


We need to get people to send letters to Randy Babbitt to get some top
level attention to this. *It also wouldn't hurt to copy Craig Fuller at
AOPA. *They should be pushing this a LOT more agresively than they have.

Just courious, what do you consider "Low Cost." *Us guys with old inexpensive sailplanes would like to know.
