With two of my club's old Mini Oz Flarms pushing up daisies, and more
likely to follow soon, it's time for us to get some new ones. We fly at
Camden, so lots and lots of random air traffic about - some IFR, lots of
RAAUS types etc. Thus, PowerFlarm with ADS-B option seems like a
reasonable thing for us to contemplate. What's the general thoughts on
where that is going and adoption rates? IIRC the yanks just rescinded
their mandatory requirements for it, and something happened here in Oz
around it too, but my google-fu is weak.
If we look at a 10 year lifespan for equipment, then the horizon of the
adoption of ADS-B is the interesting bit to us, rather than equipment cost.

"Look through the lens, and the light breaks down into many lights.
Turn it or move it, and a new set of arrangements appears... is it
a single light or many lights, lights that one must know how to
distinguish, recognise and appreciate? Is it one light with many
frames or one frame for many lights?" -Subcomandante Marcos
