FAA Installation Rebate Deadline Looms

NavWorx is now shipping its ADS600-B 2.0 System for installations in experimental aircraft only. The first aircraft are flying this week. ADS600-B 2.0 is a 2nd generation version of the company's remote mounted Universal Access Transceiver (UAT). It provides 2020 compliance with ADS-B Out and all the advantages of ADS-B In.

NavWorx has been shipping its ADS600-B 2.0 System since last month (for experimental aircraft only) and the first aircraft are operational this week. Presently, these NavWorx systems are being installed in numerous aircraft including: Vans RV, Challenger, Kitfox, Lancair, Zenair, RANS, Glasair, Pitts, Sonex, Rotorway, Searey, Breezy, Bearhawk, Cubs and the like.

The ADS600-B 2.0 System has a new internal WAAS GPS compliant to FAR 91.225 and FAR 91.227. It features both ADS-B Out & In with built-in Wi-Fi. The ADS600-B 2.0 System allows for reduced installation cost and installation time, and interfaces to any operational transponder and altitude encoder, alleviating the need for a panel-mounted control head. Features include:

• FAR 91.227 compliant internal WAAS GPS
• Uses any existing Mode C or Mode S transponder and coupled altitude encoder
• Built-in Wi-Fi streams Traffic and Weather to iPad and Android apps
• Low cost of installation

"This is a significant step in our progress with certification of the ADS600-B. The company has found a viable solution to the long-delayed actions with the FAA. Our customers have been extremely patient, and vocal, in their support. Meanwhile, the ADS600-B has proven to be a solid contender in the race to fulfill the goals of the NextGen Airspace project," stated Bill Moffitt, president of NavWorx. ADS-B and NextGen offer many benefits to pilots of GA aircraft in the U.S. NavWorx continues to be the affordable ADS-B solution provider.

The FAA is offering a rebate of $500.00 for ADS-B installations applicable to certified fixed-wing aircraft only. While the company awaits FAA final approval of the ADS600-B 2.0 System, operators are encouraged to take action quickly as the rebate reservation deadline is September 18, 2017.

To help operators realize the full benefits of ADS-B, NavWorx has solutions for every aircraft with its ADS600-B UAT, TransMonSPE, ARINC 429 interface, and Wi-Fi connectivity. NavWorx offers ADS-B compliance solutions, at an attractive and affordable price, for certified and experimental aircraft.
