ADS-B is on the way, and the FAA wants you to upgrade your avionics
to an ADS-B-compatible package by 2020. That's a long way off, but
it's still going to cost money. Last week, we asked AVweb
readers how much they'd be willing to spend to equip their airplanes for
ADS-B.
The plurality of responses fell into the $1,000 range
(accounting for 47% of those who answered), while only 9% fell at the
extremes of the sky's the limit and the government should pay
me to install it.

THIS WEEK'S QUESTION ***
We've probably asked this before, but it's come up again, and we're
wondering if you've changed your mind on it: This time, there's actually a
petition against allowing cell phone use on airliners. What do you think? Should their use be allowed on commercial flight?
