How ADS-B Affects Aircraft Positioning:

1. No ADS-B Out (Stratus Only):

• Your aircraft can only receive air-to-air ADS-B signals.
• No visibility to ground stations, limited traffic awareness.

1. No ADS-B Out, Near Another ADS-B Out Aircraft:

• Nearby ADS-B Out aircraft triggers ground stations to broadcast traffic.
• You benefit from enhanced traffic data without broadcasting your own position.

1. With ADS-B Out:

• Your aircraft broadcasts its own position to ground stations and other aircraft.
• Full traffic picture with maximum situational awareness.

ADS-B Out ensures better visibility and safety in the sky .
