This is just going to be a simple, VFR plane. The only reason I'm having a transponder at all is that in NYC I live under probably the largest Class B in the country (the three major NYC-area airports overlap one another) and it's almost impossible to avoid the mode-C veil, so I either have to fly without an electrical system or have a mode C transponder. Mode S is the newest toy, but I hope the FAA isn't going to require it in all planes.
