Do the high altitude controller's have real time access to the actual altitude of an airplane? Not what the mode C is telling you but what actual altitude the airplane is at?

With ADSB once fully implemented two of the things controllers will be able to see is indicated airspeed and altitude if your airplane is so equipped ADSB.

There are pilots out there that think with the new RVSM rules, ADS-B, they can just go up there and ATC will tell them if they are off altitude. These are airplanes that are not approved under the old rules. I am wondering if ATC has the ability to see if the airplane is actually off altitude or only have mode C data.
I want to post something about you being an a@#$$ but will not do it, ok maybe I did. I have never been in RVSM altitudes without an LOA! Just trying to stop other pilots from being up there with us and being off altitude.So you busted an altitude in a non ADSB airplane
No and no.Do the high altitude controller's have real time access to the actual altitude of an airplane? Not what the mode C is telling you but what actual altitude the airplane is at?
This is what has been posted on another website.
"Where is the rule that requires aircraft certification?
Section 9 is very clear. You can fly in RVSM if you have this equipment. Period.
It doesn't say if you have this equipment which has been certified, or acceptable to the administrator.
The rule is the rule."
We've been talking about this with regard to the PC12 to go to FL300
Haha we are regularly at FL320 and above with our King Air. Sips fuel and clogs airways.That won’t be in the way at all.
Clogging airways and running over jets all in the same flight.Haha we are regularly at FL320 and above with our King Air. Sips fuel and clogs airways.

Slow enroute and too fast on arrival. We were threatened of a go around in SFO because we were overtaking a 777.Clogging airways and running over jets all in the same flight.

I hate it when people get it backwards. You're supposed to go FAST en route and SLOW in the pattern...Clogging airways and running over jets all in the same flight.
