5 International Use Limitations

At the time of publishing of this revision, portable ADS-B OUT transmitters

are not permitted for global use (including the United States). Operating

SkyEcho outside of approved airspace, the transmit function must be

disabled. SkyEcho can be used as a receiver in all locations.

EC devices are intended for voluntary carriage on registered and non-

registered UK Annex II aircraft, non-complex EASA aircraft of <5700kg

MTOM and for gliders and balloons (including those covered under ELA 1

and ELA 2) within uncontrolled UK airspace. EC Devices do not replace the

need for a transponder when required by airspace/flight rules. Aeronautical

Information Circular (AIC) Y 141/2019 allows for the use of EC devices

simultaneously with ATCRBS or Mode S transponders which are not

Extended Squitter (ES) or ADS-B OUT enabled. If your aircraft is ADS-B

OUT enabled, you must disable the transmit function of SkyEcho from the

configuration settings.

An EC device that operates using ADS-B at 1090MHz must have a

Declaration of Capability and Conformance (DoCC) from the manufacturer

before you can legally use it on board an aircraft. The pilot in command of

the aircraft is responsible for ensuring that the EC device has a valid

declaration. Please refer to the CAA EC Web page for more information:
