Abstract:
This collection is promulgated under the authority described in Title 49 of the United States Code, Subtitle I, Section 106 Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart I, Section 40103, Sovereignty and use of airspace, and Subpart III, section 44701, General requirements. Under section 40103, the FAA is charged with prescribing regulations on the flight of aircraft, including regulations on safe altitudes, navigating, protecting, and identifying aircraft, and the safe and efficient use of the navigable airspace. Under section 44701, the FAA is charged with promoting safe flight of civil aircraft in air commerce by prescribing regulations for practices, methods, and procedures the Administrator finds necessary for safety in air commerce. This collection requires performance measures for certain avionics equipment on aircraft operating in specified classes of airspace within the United States National Airspace System. On May 28, 2010, the FAA published the final rule entitled Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) Out Performance Requirements to Support Air Traffic Control (ATC) Service. As of January 2, 2020, when operating in the airspace designated in 14 CFR § 91.225(a) and (d), operators must be equipped with ADS-B Out avionics that meet the performance requirements of 14 CFR § 91.227.

Short Statement:
ICs have been broken out to reflect those aircraft currently equipped, "existing," based on May 1, 2020 FAA equipage (good install) monitoring and aircraft detected by FAA ADS-B Network; and, those aircraft numbers projected by FAA that may be installing, "new," ADS-B equipment annually. New equipage projection, 19,000 annually, based on estimated 57,000 aircraft General Aviation aircraft still not equipped. Since last submission ADS-B Out has been mandated. As of January 2, 2020, when operating in the airspace designated in 14 CFR § 91.225(a) and (d), operators must be equipped with ADS-B Out avionics that meet the performance requirements of 14 CFR § 91.227. As of January 2, 2020, ADS-B is the preferred surveillance method for the control of air traffic across the National Airspace System (NAS). ADS-B supports the aircraft surveillance needs of the FAA by requiring avionics equipment that meet the performance requirements of 14 CFR § 91.227 and continuously transmit aircraft information to be received by the FAA, via automation, for use in providing air traffic surveillance services. Since the rule went into effect, there has not been any changes or adjustments to the program.
