Mark I sit under Bravo airspace here in Dallas and you should see the wasp nest of targets on my IPad as I transition through Bravo headed West of the DFW area from Mesquite. When traffic is light, they vector us right through. I agree that it's a blessing to know...who and what's around you...the head on a swivel is not always the best defense.

Being able to see commercial traffic. But >really, I don't think I really have to worry about a 747's running into >me. I'll stick with the real ones. Oh really? You may just want to reconsider that! A few years ago I was in route to the KR Gathering at MVN and was skirting the mode C ring around Chicago O'Hare and I was cruising at 8,000' when I looked up and saw a commercial crossing above me. That thing was huge and I could easily see the oil streaks on its belly. Really gave me a strange feeling inside my guts. Also here at STE we have commercial transitioning our area at very low altitudes going into CWA which is 20 miles north. One day I was level and flying parallel with a commercial and he asked me what kind of plane I was flying? When I told him he said he would love to fly it and I told him if he would let me fly his that I would let him fly mine. He just laughed and continued on to his landing at CWA. When I do get ADS-B it will be for both frequencies.
