What if planes went invisible?

I think most people assume aircraft tracking works everywhere. It doesn’t.
ADS-B has gaps. Rural areas. Remote routes. Oceans.
When coverage drops:
- Aircraft position updates stop
- Controllers lose real time visibility
- Delays increase
- Risk rises in edge cases
Over 30,000 flights move daily. Coverage gaps still exist.
I’m looking at this from a systems view. Coverage is the problem.
@deradnet tackles it differently:
- You set up a low cost ground station
- You stream ADS-B data from your area
- You earn DRD for contributing
You extend coverage where it matters.
Your setup becomes part of global aviation data.
