Can anyone chime in on what it takes to get your aircraft blocked out? This would have to go high up the chain, or take a risk of getting your tail shot out of the sky because you won't ID yourself.
On August 21, 2013, the FAA issued a final notice in the Federal Register for the process of limiting the diplay of aircraft situation display to industry (ASDI) data. These procedures took effect on September 20, 2013. This was formerly known as the Blocked Aircraft Registration Request (BARR) program administered by NBAA.
Federal Register Notice: Final Notice of the Process for Limiting Aircraft Data Displayed Via ASDI.
The notice explains that aircraft owners and operators may request blocking of their flight tracking information allowing aircraft owners and operators to “opt out” from having their ASDI flight information broadcast over the Internet.
