Default Cobham 717's & ADSB

Anyone know when Cobham are installing ADSB into their 717's? I havent seen too many (if any) on the usual Flight Radar & Plane Finder apps.

I'm guessing they will get it as they go through the cabin upgrades?

From the CASA website that all aircraft ops 20nm From Perth require this by 2013 apparently, So I dare say during their next maintenance visit that it will be installed. All aircraft have to be done by 2016 anyway.

I think they all have ADS-B installed, however they are not sending GPS location data, so they don't show up. e get 5 or 6 a day fly through or over Alice Springs, and I have them all logged in BaseStation, however I only see HEX code, Rego and Altitude.

I'm waiting eagerly for them to connect up the GPS data for the full ADS-B reporting as other than a couple of QF 738's these are the only flights into YBAS - everything else overflies here at FL400 ish.

Cheers,
Geoff
