The 2020 ADS-B mandate has the entire aviation industry buzzing, and ANN CEO and Editor-In-Chief, Jim Campbell, had the chance to take a test flight to see the operation of a system being produced by L-3 Avionics. Jim flew with, and then interviewed, their chief pilot, Todd Scholten, for a firsthand preview of the product they have named, Lynx.
Scholten says the Lynx family of ADS-B ranges from a portable system to a full panel mounted system. Scholten said the Lynx products were designed to meet the numerous variables involved in interfacing with existing avionics, yet they also supply a stand-alone Lynx system as well.
Jim asked Scholten to take him through a phase-of-flight demonstration of the Lynx system in operation. This is where it’s a really good thing that we produced this video to give you a look at it in operation rather than just trying to describe the details. This video shows you some really interesting stuff about Lynx and the features that are being provided through ADS-B.
