n the NextGen era of ADS-B, the WAAS/GPS position source usually is the priciest
component in the FAA-mandated system. Investing in this necessary satellite-based
device has been a vexing decision for aircraft owners, especially those who fly VFR.
IFR aircraft owners don't have a choice; they must install a TSO'd GPS navigator.
Owners of VFR type certificated aircraft can rationalize the installation of an IFR GPS
navigator because it increases its value and makes it more appealing to its next
owner, who likely needs or wants NextGen IFR capabilities. Many
owners of experimental, amateur-built aircraft cannot buy into this
rationalization because they fly for the pure fair-weather pleasure
of it.
All they need, as specified by §91.225, Automatic Dependent
Surveillance-Broadcast Out equipment and use, is a system that
"meets the performance requirements in TSO-C166b, Extended
Squitter ADS-B and Traffic Information Service-Broadcast
Equipment Operating on the Radio Frequency of 1090 Megahertz.
Or if they will never fly above 18,000 feet, they can choose a
system that "meets the performance requirements in TSO-C154c,
Universal Access Transceiver ADS-B Equipment Operating on the
Frequency of 978 MHz.
In either case, the system must also meet the requirements of
§91.227, ADS-B Out equipment performance requirements. It
itemizes accuracy and integrity of the satellite-based position source
that provides "the aircraft's state vector (3-dimensional position and
