ADS-B Out Field Approvals
The following information is from the FAA
memorandum on installation approval for
ADS-B Out Systems dated Oct. 10, 2012.

QUESTION:

Can ADS-B Out systems be approved using
data approvals other than an STC, including
field approvals?

ANSWER:

Yes, ADS-B Out systems can be approved
using data approvals other than an STC if all
of the following conditions are met:
a. The ADS-B Out equipment is authorized
under TSO-C166b or TSO-C154c.
b. The GNSS position sensor is approved
under TSO-C129 or later, TSO-C145a/
C146a or later, or TSO-C196 or later.
c. The ADS-B Out equipment (transponder
or universal access transceiver), GNSS

position sensor, and interconnect wiring are identical to previously-approved
design under type certificate or supplemental type certificate.
d. The installation is performed in accordance with the equipment manufacturer's installation guidance.
e. The installer verifies the installation in
accordance with the guidance of AC
20-165 Chapter 3 and 4.
Note: The data from the previously approved
installation may be used to address paragraphs
3-1 c, 3-1 d, 3-3 b (2), 4-1 b, and 4-1 c.
A return-to-service operational check flight
in accordance with AC 20-165 section 4-3 is
recommended to determine if the installation
performance is acceptable. However, a ground
check with proper test equipment can suffice
for the operational flight check provided all
parameters of the system can be verified.
All other aspects of the installation qualify
for installation under 14 CFR Part 43.
