In particular, SUA Status, NOTAMS not tied to an airport, forecast turbulence.

I would think iFly should have the ability to display everything that gets put out on the ADSB broadcast.

^^^ WHAT HE SAID. 

iFly currently supports about half of all the products now being provided by the FAA.  At least I think they're being provided...I wouldn't know for sure because I've never seen them.  But the FAA says they are.

From https://www.faa.gov/nextgen/programs/adsb/faq/#x1:
