So You Blew Off ADS B Now What?

Man oh man that siren was loud…

Hearing gets destroyed at 6:38

Dam guys, your siren blew my ears out. Now I think I have to go back to the medical examiner to get a new restriction on my medical.

Headphone warning would've been nice.

Paul is the best aviation news presenter, love his dry humor! He needs millions of views! More videos from him please!!

"Oh, and Merry Christmas." Classic Paul 😂 🤣

I have a few friends that are complaining about it... The regs came out in early 2010. You had 10 years Most installs are between 2-4k. While not pocket change, its still very cheap when it comes to planes. My families last cross country trip cost more than that in fuel.

Excellent Paul! Thanks for posting. Educational AND entertaining!

The best jingle at the beginning and the end! A great new year start!

Love your posts, always good value and extremely high on how to fly safely.

Thank for blowing out my eardrums with the buzzer

Paul thanks for sharing. Always very informative with a great satire. 10/10

Merry Christmas Paul. Very informative video.

Blown speaker alert at 6:37

Merry Christmas. Excellent instructional video.

Excellent recap Paul! Love your humor. Merry Christmas! Happy ADS-B year! 🤪

My glider is exempt (no "electrical system") but I decided to install ADS-B out on it. Since I already am flying with a Trig 22 transponder and since my glider is 'Experimental' category, that was quite easy. The Garmin/Trig GPS receiver that works with the T22 is $350, the antenna is $50 and I also installed a squat switch to run the SIL 3 configuration. All works well and my FAA Performance Report came back with perfect results. Here on the edge of the Chicago B airspace I want to be seen!!! Battery drain is negligible and I see that as just an excuse. Btw., we squawk the "glider code" 1202 at all times unless directed otherwise.

Paul, too bad you didn't have a brother. Sometimes you need a big brother to slap you upside the head. In my 4,000 hours of private flying, I have had three "near-death experiences." One time I was saved by a competent and caring approach controller out of Tampa who spotted what turned out to be a C182 evidently doing emergency decent practice above me about 80 nm North of TPA. I was IFR and the other pilot was not using flight following. It took 3 evasive maneuver commands to get me away from him. and prevent the collision. He, of course, never knew the better. Next it was my eagle-eyed daughter, then 18, who spotted an old Taylorcraft flying the wrong way, right out of the sun, turning downwind to Runway 18 at KIRS. Sturgis, MI. If not for her last-second scream "Daddy" and pointing, then my instinctive haul-ass to the right, all 3 of us would have been history. The pilot and I had a "discussion" about his choice not to use his hand-held radio and fly the opposite way in a pattern. Finally, I had one of those "in the freakin' middle of nowhere" encounters over Oklahoma on a long, slow descent into a rural airport and had just fallen below radar coverage. A big twin overtook me from behind, evidently climbing out of a private strip, nose up, not using his radio, he never saw me butI felt the pressure wave from above just prior to the big shadow and the roar of his engines even through my Lightspeeds. Scared the bejesus out of me. I hope my point is obvious. ADS-B, fully complied with, would have avoided all three of these scenarios. So you and your "exempt" friends should think twice, no, five times, before deciding not to buy the damn unit, the battery, whatever it takes, and comply anyway. The life you save might be your own ... or maybe mine, too. (you may say that was not the point of your post. Moot point. It should have been mentioned.)

Great video! This is the "sad but true" reality of the modern day general aviation.

You blew out one of my speakers with that siren...
