ADS-B Install Demand Could Outstrip Shop Capacity
Duncan said that nearly 11,000 U.S.-based turbine aircraft still need ADS-B, while the total number of all aircraft in the U.S. is around 74,000.

Duncan Aviation estimates that roughly 6,000 of the business jets in its “core customer base” still need to be equipped with ADS-B OUT to meet the U.S. Jan. 1, 2020 mandate. “That paints a pretty urgent picture of the industry. However, when you consider that ADS-B affects all aircraft, it's an even more dramatic picture,” the company noted. In fact, Duncan said that nearly 11,000 U.S.-based turbine aircraft still need ADS-B, while the total number of all aircraft in the U.S. that require installation of the NextGen avionics is closer to 74,000.
