ADS-B North America

ADS_B North America Schedules

I have been researching the status of ADS-B implementation in North America.

These are the most current documents I could find for US and Mexico.

USA:
faa.gov/nextgen/ga/media/AEA … lation.pdf

As of May 1 2014, there were 4755 equipped aircraft in the US and approximately 150,000 more that are required to upgrade before 2020.

Mexico:
The Mexico implementation schedule for major airports.

Still looking for Canada.

This article reports 8,800 equipped planes as of January 2015 which brings the remaining USA fleet requiring equipment installation by 2020 down to about 135,000-140,000.

And, the viewpoint of the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association.

I was wondering about the commercial regional fleet. At SEA, we have swarms of RJs and Q400s that give me no usable data. (Yes, I know, SEA is nothing compared to JFK or ORD. First world problems :slight_smile: ) Other than by 2020, any places that might have a time table of what carriers may be planning equipment changes when?
