If you are really talking ADSB this is even easier to fool. Just
connect your nice bogus serial data stream into the transponder and
everyone will think you are somewhere other than where you are. Don't
even need the fancy software in the GPS simulator. If that sim is any
good it will also simulate the staellites in view, vary signal
strengths etc so it might not be very easy to tell what you are
looking at. All the information you need is in public documents
including the IGC FR requirements.
