uAvionix has responded to the controversial Garmin lawsuit. uAvionix asserts that it has developed its own ADS-B technology.
"On June 19, 2018 Garmin International Inc. and Garmin USA Inc. sued uAvionix for patent infringement. Garmin alleges the uAvionix echoUAT and skyBeacon’s method of obtaining an installed transponder’s Mode 3/A code and altitude infringes their U.S. Patent No. 8,102,301 (“the 301 Patent”). "We do not infringe the 301 Patent" uAvionix says. "uAvionix has our own patent-pending method for using Mode 3/A and altitude information that differs from the method in the 301 Patent. We invite you to see for yourself." The long-anticipated sequel to the Tom Cruise movie "Top Gun" has started filming aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln, according to the U.S. Navy. Filming began May 31, according to a photo posted to Cruise's Instagram account. Initial filming was done at Naval Air Station North Island in California. A film crew of 15 from Paramount Pictures and Bruckheimer Films embarked aboard the Lincoln on Sunday, and were scheduled to be on board for a week, according to Naval Air Force
Atlantic spokesman Cmdr. Dave Hecht. The crew was filming flight deck and air operations, including F/A-18 Super Hornets from Virginia Beach-based Carrier Air Wing Seven working on carrier qualifications.
