ADS-B OUT Could Eliminate RVSM Application Process
Continual monitoring enabled by ADS–B OUT provides increased height keeping performance data on an individual aircraft basis, the FAA said.

The FAA has issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) that would eliminate the requirement for operators to apply for an RVSM authorization when their aircraft are equipped with qualified ADS–B OUT systems. “This proposal recognizes the enhancements in aircraft monitoring resulting from the use of ADS–B OUT systems and responds to requests to eliminate the burden and expense of the current RVSM application process,” the agency said.
