The old ATR's will be replaced over coming years, so it seems like there is no point to bother upgrading them. If I remember it's ADS-B mandatory above 24500 from next year sometime. ATR is 25000 max, so can operate below anyway.

It appears that the following Q300's now have ADSB fitted. ZK-NFA, NEF, NEG, NEK, NEM, NEU, NEW, NEZ
Opps. May not be 100% correct.

Now the problem will be getting all those private a/c more visible on screen A very few have Ads-b , most don't even have Mode S and operate still on Mode C. Primary radar is to be discontinued soon and surely it is in the interest of private a/c owners to have their alt and position known to other users of the sky.

From Feb last year. Stage 2: 2018-2020, ADS-B mandatory Airspace above FL 245.
Stage 3: 2021-2023
ADS-B out mandatory in all controlled Airspace from 2021.
So there's still a while.
