If ADS-B technology costs $18,000 today, that will be $1800 or even $180 in
2020.


How much did a KX-155 cost in 1987?

How much did it cost in 2006?

Did the installation cost for insert avionics box go up or down in the past
20 years?




I work in the high tech computer industry. 5 terabytes of disk storage cost
nearly $1,000,000 in the year 2000. Today, in summer 2007, we just bought 7
terabytes for $11,000. This is not a typo. The technology is similar.


high tech computer industry is not the same animal as avionics.
