JerzyGeorge Posted December 15, 2015 Share Posted December 15, 2015 Any opinion and recommendations , I am thinking about Trig 21 but it is a bit expensive I fly close to CTA quite often and think would be usefull and also traffic avoidance system in other aircrafts will pick me up.

Skee Posted December 15, 2015 Share Posted December 15, 2015 woulndt going for a Mode C transponder cheaper? like http://www.aircraftspruce.com/pages/av/transponders_0browse/microairt2000.php Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nobody Posted December 15, 2015 Share Posted December 15, 2015 A mode c might be ok but would have some restrictions. "If fitting a new transponder Post 6 February 14 a mode S transponder is required unless the aircraft is restricted to operations Below A100 in Class G and Class D. In such areas a mode C transponder is acceptable." http://www.airservicesaustralia.com/projects/ads-b/mode-s-transponders-ads-b-and-vfr-aircraft/ What this means is that you couldn't go into Class E airspace of which there is quite a lot.

Skee Posted December 15, 2015 Share Posted December 15, 2015 Then just buy the cheapest mode s get it done if your not looking into integrating it to your efis, then you need special equipment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But class E is not anywhere below 8500 ft if I recall ( and in a lot of places is into the flight levels) so if you don't ever go that high.
