The last day for eligible aircraft owners to reserve one of the Federal Aviation Administration’s $500 rebates for ADS-B/Out compliance is Monday, Sept. 18, 2017.

The FAA is currently offering a $500 rebate to help owners of single-engine, piston aircraft equip now with the required avionics. Although the last day to make a reservation is September 18, eligible aircraft owners who make a reservation by the deadline will still have time to complete the remaining steps in the process to receive the rebate check.

Beginning Jan. 1, 2020, aircraft must be equipped with ADS-B/Out to fly in most controlled airspace. See Federal Regulations 14 CFR 91.225 and 14 CFR 91.227 for details.

The rebate program runs through September 18 or until all 20,000 rebates have been claimed, whichever comes first. Eligible aircraft are defined as U.S.-registered, fixed-wing, single-engine piston aircraft whose operation requires an onboard pilot, first registered before Jan 1, 2016.
