Airline leaders report confidence on potential mandate, but survey shows uneven understanding of the technology.

It was unclear to me how simple ADSB-In could result in reduced arrival spacing and increased efficiency, so I went to the report (linked below). There’s a bit more to the story. These efficiencies are obtained through the use of optimized spacing on visual approaches with the incorporation of technology making use of ADSB-In and ATC procedures that identify “traffic to follow” (TTF) by call sign. The crew enters TTF information into the FMS, and the tech optimizes the flight path for minimum separation.

Thanks for pointing that out! It’s surprising that half of “aviation management professionals” don’t know anything about this technology…
