Although the idea of ADS-B appears generally a good one, I'm unclear on the
costs to GA pilots and aircraft owners like myself. Unless we are shown evidence
of the low cost of the mandatory equipage stemming from this rule, it is hard to
support the change -- at least a mandatory one. In short, how much will this cost
me to continue flying my Cessna 172 in and around B airspace?
On the other hand, an optional (at least for GA) offering that provides benefits to
pilots (TIS, WX, etc.) might spawn the market for manufacturers and lay the
groundwork (and evidence of cost-benefit) for a mandatory rule in the future.
