How volunteer-built receiver networks use multilateration to fill the surveillance gaps that FAA ADS-B infrastructure alone cannot cover.
VectorGPS spoofing is actively corrupting ADS-B surveillance data in live certificated airspace, creating false position pictures that controllers and pilots may have no immediate way to detect.
VectorThe FAA's Privacy ICAO Address program scrambles database lookups to obscure aircraft identity, but the unencrypted 1090 MHz signal remains visible to anyone with a $25 receiver.
VectorTIS-B fills ADS-B traffic display gaps using FAA radar data, but latency, coverage holes, and non-transponder aircraft create blind spots every pilot must understand.
VectorFlight trackers show pilots far more than position data - groundspeed variations, step climbs, and oceanic routing decisions are all readable in real time.
TowerThe FAA's Part 108 rule would make beyond-visual-line-of-sight drone flight routine - here's what it means for pilots.
VectorFLARM predicts flight paths 18-20 seconds ahead, solving the mid-air collision problem ADS-B cannot address for maneuvering aircraft.
VectorGPS jamming disabled navigation on an RAF jet near Russia - here's why every pilot should have a backup plan.
TowerAn ATC error nearly caused a Southwest 737 midair collision at Nashville, highlighting why pilots must maintain situational awareness even under radar control.
