I just loaded Foreflight up last night and was messing with it at home. “Traffic” option will not display until an ADS-B receiver is detected.

Does the CTLS typically come with some sort of ADS-B? I am currently training in a 2012 CTLS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The new airplanes come equipped with ADS-B “Out” and “In.” To activate “Traffic,” an ADS-B “In” signal must be detected. If the airplane is not equipped with ADS-B “Out” also, then the “traffic” received (and displayed) will be an incomplete picture of traffic around your aircraft. More detailed ADS-B information is abundant on the internet. Additionally, this information is in the Pilot’s Guide to Foreflight Mobile.

Animosity2k Posted June 1, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2019 Bill appreciate the tip. When you mention new ones, I am assuming that is way post 2012 (what I am flying now). Also does foreflight just pick up on the device and connect automatically if the plane has an ADS-B equipped? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t know when FD added full ADS-B as standard package, but I doubt that 2012 was included. Foreflight “Traffic” automatically connects to an ADS-B receiver via WI-FI.
