Right. That's why equipping GA aircraft with TCAS-equivalent systems
makes sense; it puts the tools to avoid 99% of MACS in the hands of
the GA pilot, not ATC nor the military.

ADS-B would be way better than TCAS (not merely equivalent). TCAS
is not sufficiently accurate in azimuth to provide horizontal escape
guidance.


Thank you for providing this information. Can you compare the
specifications/capabilities of TCAS vs ADS-B for us? It looks like
ADS-B is on the horizon currently.
