Smoke and rear view mirrors
Understand that the FAA's website goes live today to reserve your rebate for ADS-B. Went on the website just after 9am eastern and the website says rebates not available, all rebate reservations have been requested. So, did all 20,000 of the 160,000 aircraft owners who will need this get up and reserve their rebate that early. Website also has red lettering that says this is for development only. Sooo, is the website not up yet or did I miss the boat?

I logged on and it was a pretty painless operation.
My airport is under the KSEA Class B "veil"; therefore, I have no options other than installing ADS-B.
I went with the least expensive total cost option I could find for my certified aircraft.
Now got to get it installed and fly it in the ADS-B environment for certification.

Can't help but believe that it was just the bone they had to throw us to get it in place so they could track us all
You bet.
If I weas in Tom's shoes and I wanted to fly I would acquiesce but I live out here in the desert and I'll keep my (illusion of) privacy and make due without it.

NavWorx has a Stealth mode in its units. If you want to fly outside the required areas without the tracking, supposedly this will allow it.
See below supposedly this is going to migrate to the ADS600-B:
AutoStealth(tm) Mode:
The UAT technology is the only ADS-B equipment that will allow for privacy. Normally, ADS-B devices transmit the aircrafts ICAO number, a unique code that is assigned by the FAA to each aircraft. When flying VFR however, there is no need to let the FAA know who you are. The ADS600-EXP randomizes the ICAO whenever the squawk code is set to 1200. In addition, the N-Number of the aircraft configured is changed to "N0", an unassigned N-Number.

Just rolled back into town after a big TXs wedding. I need to make some calls in the am Appaero has their unit ready and now with the rebate up looks like now is the time. I still have an audio panel that came with the plane to add so I need to get some quotes and geter done. I still plan on heading down to the reunion Friday if the weather holds, still got a few days off.

I am registered and have the install scheduled. going to upgrade my audio panel while I'm in the shop. Looks like the first week of December. I'm installing the Appaero ESG transponder since I already have the Stratus 2 and iPad. ok back to getting my hay up and in the barn.

Mine came out of the shop today. I installed a Garmin GTX330ES coupled to the existing Garmin GNS430W.
I hope to run this one for a couple years and try to upgrade it later to a GTX345 to see other traffic. This is good enough for now, and if I do nothing i'll still be compliant New Year's day 2020.
