Re: ADS-B rebate
I replaced my Narco 50 transponder with a Stratus ESG. I had reserved the rebate around the end of March for a mid April install. I picked up my 120 on 30 April and did my validation flight in the local class C, then submitted for the rebate. I got an approval the next day and the check came in yesterday. Surprisingly quick and painless process.

Re: ADS-B rebate
I was able to reserve one of the leftover rebates today. Got lucky I guess, I've failed the last 3 weeks. It makes you select which hardware you plan to use. I really want to use the tailbecon but I'm not sure I can wait any longer for it. I selected the GDL82, hopefully if the tailbecon comes out I can switch the selection on my rebate, we'll see. If not, I guess I'll just have to go with the GDL82, I already have a GTX327 so it's probably the best option anyways.

Re: ADS-B rebate
A GDL82 and a 327 will make a great combination.

Re: ADS-B rebate
I saw somewhere to check the FAA website for ADSB rebates on Wednesdays to see if any had become available due to errors on previous requests.
Do a little digging and you may get lucky.

Re: ADS-B rebate
YES, keep checking, even though all the rebate slots are taken, not everyone ends up using their slot times for one reason or another. We had two customers "get a rebate" slot in the last 2 months or so.

Re: ADS-B rebate
After a month of trying, I finally snagged one of the returned rebate slots this past Wednesday. Should’ve bought a lottery ticket too

Re: ADS-B rebate
I just read in an article in AOPA Pilot that they release any expired, unused rebates at 1:00 PM Eastern time on Wednesdays.

Re: ADS-B rebate
That is correct, that's how I got mine, by hitting refresh on the browser enough times and getting lucky
Although my request went through 2 min before the hour.
