The GDL-88 isn't specifically noted in the 10.2 notes.

Will the IFDs accept GDL-88 weather and traffic?

Will the GDL-88 accept position source from an IFD?

Believe the above was suggested as true in a post by Avi-Jake back in October, but would like to confirm now that official 10.2 is out.

It doesn't show up in the March 3, 2007 feature list

Yes, hence my question. I've been asked about GDL-88 support, by other pilots.

In a post last October, Steve included it with the G transponders as supported in 10.2. Might have changed since then.

Apparently not as per a regional sales manager and my call to HQ late today. "Didn't make it in." The HQ support fellow said he'd check with the software team on Monday for final confirmation and let me know.
