What You Need to Know About Privacy in the Age of ADS-B

Nov. 25, 2019

With the ADS-B compliance deadline about a month away, what do business aircraft operators need to know about protecting their privacy? The FAA has developed a plan to allow a real-time flight-tracking opt-out for operators, and also announced plans to establish new terms-of-service agreements with aircraft tracking service providers that will limit the sharing of aircraft data, if operators want to opt out from having their flight information broadcast over the Internet. NBAA has worked for years with the agency and other stakeholders to get such systems into place before the Jan. 1, 2020, deadline.

In this episode of NBAA Flight Plan, host Rob Finfrock speaks with:

  • Doug Carr, NBAA vice president of regulatory and international affairs
  • Heidi Williams, NBAA director of air traffic services and infrastructure
  • Bill Riter, aviation department manager
  • Greg Hamelink, chief of maintenance
  • NBAA Flight Plan is sponsored by Schedaero, the software that elevates your flight operations.
