NextGen avionics leader FreeFlight Systems announced the Company is offering a $500 dollar rebate on its fully-featured ADS-B and WAAS/GPS solutions. FreeFlight Systems’ Bridge Rebate Program offers customers cost savings on these products today, allowing them to take full advantage of ADS-B benefits immediately, instead of waiting for the Federal Aviation Administration’s (FAA) ADS-B Rebate Program.

FreeFlight Systems’ Bridge Rebate Program covers products from the Company’s RANGR Blue and WAAS/GPS product families. Customers who purchase a FDL-978-XVR, FDL-978-XVR/G ADS-B system or a 1203C WAAS/GPS sensor will receive a five-hundred dollar rebate after the system has been installed and a rebate form submitted. FreeFlight Systems is also offering a one-hundred dollar “Thank You” rebate for its customers who took delivery of eligible systems between January 1, 2016 and present day.

“We are excited that the FAA is launching an ADS-B rebate program that has reenergized the conversation around ADS-B equipage in general, and the specifics of the different datalinks, including the 978 UAT link’s support of anonymous mode for privacy,” said Tim Taylor, President and CEO of FreeFlight Systems. “We are pleased to expand the concept so that it is available immediately, includes all platform types and is applicable to all U.S. registered aircraft, irrespective of fleet size.”

Since this is a Bridge Program, customers interested in participating must take delivery of their system by September 30th, 2016, or when the FAA’s ADS-B Rebate Program goes live later this fall, whichever comes first. Additionally, the system must be installed before the end of the year.

Unlike the FAA’s Program, FreeFlight Systems’ Bridge Rebate extends to all fixed-wing and rotorcraft makes and models. Also, the FreeFlight Systems Program is available to all U.S. registered aircraft, and is not limited to “one per owner,” opening the door to multi-aircraft operators, such as flight schools and fleets.

FreeFlight Systems’ eligible ADS-B products are fully-featured, TSO certified and STC approved solutions that meet the FAA’s ADS-B systems requirements for all aircraft, as defined in §14 CFR 91.225 and §14 CFR 91.227.
