I was just reading about a gent’s ADS-B install pass/fail flight testing and it made me think.

I’m currently still building my plane, so I’m positive I won’t be completed before Jan 2020. I live under the DFW class B, and my Phase 1 flights will be within the mode C veil.

Am I overthinking first flight? As in, I won’t have a validated install, but all flights after January are supposed to be with ADSB capability.
