Here you’ll find everything you’ll need to install, maintain, and learn about your skyBeacon TSO. In addition to that you can fill out a support ticket for advanced problems and get into the details of Certification and Documentation.
My aircraft is not listed
Under FAA Memo titled “Installation Approval for ADS-B OUT Systems,” the FAA explains that after an STC is achieved for ADS-B OUT equipment, additional installations can be accomplished on aircraft not listed under the AML STC by an A&P with Inspection Authorization (IA) so long as the installation does not require airframe modification. This process requires completion of a two-page FAA form known as a 337. We are providing a mostly complete sample tailBeacon Form 337 here. Once the form is completed your installer will mail it to the FAA office in Oklahoma City. The process is normal for many ADS-B installations and your installer is likely familiar with the process. If your installer has questions please ask them to contact us.
