Florida § 330.42 - Automatic dependent surveillance-broadcasts.

§ 330.42. Automatic dependent surveillance-broadcasts.

(1) For purposes of this section, the term: (a) “Aircraft” has the same meaning as in s. 330.27, except that the aircraft must have a gross weight of 12,499 pounds or less and operate under 14 C.F.R. part 91. (b) “Automatic dependent surveillance-broadcast” or “ADS-B” means an advanced aviation surveillance technology that combines an aircraft’s positioning source, the aircraft’s avionics, and a ground infrastructure to create an accurate surveillance interface between an aircraft and air traffic control. The term includes two different services, ADS-B In and ADS-B Out, which can provide information, such as an aircraft’s global positioning system location, altitude, ground speed, and other data, to ground stations and other aircraft, as well as weather and traffic information to aircraft operators. (c) “Touch-and-go landing” means an operation by an aircraft that lands and departs on a runway without stopping or exiting the runway. (2) An airport may not use information broadcast or collected by automatic dependent surveillance-broadcast systems, regardless of whether that data originates from ADS-B In or ADS-B Out, as a means for calculating, generating, and collecting fees from aircraft owners or operators who operate aircraft within the geographic boundaries of this state under the following circumstances: (a) When the operation for which a fee would be assessed is a departure or a landing, including, but not limited to, a touch-and-go landing. (b) When the fee would be assessed based on an aircraft entering into a specified radius of the airspace of the airport assessing the fee.
