Possible AD for certain NAVWORX ADS-B Units

[DennisRhodes]

I noticed that the Navworx block for certified ADSB equipment on the FAA page was back on there when I looked today . I don't frequent this page very often so It may have been placed earlier but I just noticed it. I know that for quite some time there was no mention of Navworx on this page. That block is for the 600B cert unit with P/N 0112 and 0113 using the internal GPS source and or Aspen NexNav Mini .

copied off the FAA page:
NavWorx ADS600-B, Part Numbers 200-0112 and 200-0113 Source: Internal or Aspen NexNav? Mini Application: Fixed Wing STC Jun 2014

I am told Navworx phones and website will all be operational by tommorrow.
Orders are being taken for the compliant units that will ship in June.
Mr. baron asked if he could call me... which I agreed to. Silence since then.

Took a look at the NavWorx page just to see if anything new. Was looking at the product offerings ( not that you could buy anything ) but just to see if anything was new. Found this interesting bullet item on the ADS600 receiver ( in Only) unit. Copied from Navworx site:

Certified ADS-B Receiver for upcoming certified ADS-B IN applications ????

To my knowledge the FAA certification process has been been pretty clear about having minimum control on ADS B In receivers. However this bullet item leads one to believe there may be something forthcoming. I know I have been asking about the low end cost Receiver that uAvionix has ( Ping Buddy II) and have been getting " it's not ready for sale yet" and notice that the prototype is no longer available.

Is there some talk of regulations now on certification of the ADSB in products??

I have a Navworx ADS600-EXP being fed by a KT76A through a TransMon.

This equipment was installed on 05/06/2016 and has worked without issues for 36 flight hours.

In the past, I had requested a few ADS-B reports and all came back with no issues.

I just recently requested another ADSB report using the following link:

9-AWA-AFS-300-ADSB-AvionicsCheck@faa.gov

Here is the message that I received back that it failed to generate a report.

************************************************** ***************
Your Performance Report request for Tail Number N812BM on 5/04/2017 failed to generate a result.

If you believe this is an error, please respond to 9-AWA-AFS-300-ADSB-AvionicsCheck@faa.gov and include the following information:

1. Aircraft registration number and flight identification code,

2. Flight date and time,

3. Make/model of ADS-B transmitter and GPS, and

4. Any ADS-B avionics operating abnormalities observed or reported during the associated flight.

************************************************** ***************

I submitted the requested info and got the following reply a couple of days later.

So bottom line is, at present my system is working fine but can't get an ADS-B report ????

The FAA reply refers me to the document about the FAA and Navworx debacle.

So there you have it from another Navworx dazed and confused customer

This mess is like looking in window of an insane asylum.

My patience and confidence in Navworx is gone, have contacted CC bank to get a refund (if possible) on purchase last August, over $1800 invested, nothing to show for it, absolutely nothing.

FWIW, I just requested a report for my 600EXP box installed Nov 2015, and received a good & complete report. Reported back within 5 minutes.

Got a good report from my flight last night on a 600B-0013. I suspect you could select any system (instead of Navworx) and GPS source on the PAPRR screen, and the report wouldn't care. I'd bet the FAA only collects the make/model/gps source for building data, because I don't think the information is placed in the OUT stream.

I flew this morning and just requested a report. I'm pretty sure this is a new question as I don't remember answering it in the past;

"Please provide the Installer of your ADS-B OUT Equipment. ADS-B OUT Equipment Installer
*Installer Category:
Repair Shop
Airframe Powerplant Mechanic
Factory Installed
Self Installed - Experimental
Self Installed - Light Sport
Not Known
[*Denotes required input.]"

Repair Shop, Mechanic ask for State, City, and Shop/Mechanic name.

FWIW, my report came back No Exceptions, as usual.

I did mine a few days ago and Dynon wasn't even in the pull-down list for the manufacturer...
