I can agree. Garmin sysems, including garmin 'pilot' watches, might take a great advantages from displaying situational awareness data about planes. This concept of a driver's watch vibrating when another vehicle approaches was demonstrated in automated cars, so why not with planes. > I got the impression that the systems already have the radios, but > maybe not the antennas needed A garmin watch certainly has bluetooth and ANT+ and probably WiFi and LTE interfaces. At that point what one might need is two alternative things: - an external convertor from ADS-B or Remote ID into ANT+ or into Bluetooth. - or an Internet connection in the plane, to which the watch might query flightradar, via watch's WiFi interface. > (on the lab rack, all antennas removed so the FAA does not ask what > that Cessna is doing inside a building!).

I am under the impression that ADS-B functions without satellite, in the most cases. I can understand ADS-B-Out coming out of large transponders of large airplanes, but I do not see the opposition to ADS-B-In. It does not seem to be as if ADS-B-In was smaller transponders in lighter aircraft vs ADS-B-Out larger transpoders in larger heavier aircraft.

An I-D might want to simply document what is already in use out there. If already one single light drones sends Remote ID on bluetooth to a PC that converts it into ADS-B data and uploads it to flightradar - that is a deployed system which deserves being documented. If it is documented then it represents a huge help to users of many kinds. A particular kind of of user of flightradar (like me) will be very happy to know what means an 'ICAO a24bit ddress' that flighradar displays about a light drone. In a sense it represents a satisfaction of a simple curiosity, but in many other senses, some times, it might represent a much more important help. For example some non-aviator people heard on radio airwawes (a frequency around 123MHz) voices that were very important. That happened because they knew on which frequency to tune, because it is documented. >> As for crowd-sourcing to flightradar24, it IS crowd-sourced, today. >> Please see here as an example: >> https://www.flightradar24.com/apply-for-receiver.

True. It might also be that an I-D gets written about how this conversion RemoteID-ADSB of a light drone happens, and nobody uses that I-D. At that point one will say retrospectively that there was no need of that I-D, I agree.
