You haven't flown with a FLARM, yet you keep saying this. Why do you
think they are "concentrating" on FLARM? From what I've read about it,
and from what users say, there is no "concentrating": you go about your
flying until it alerts you.


.... at which point, if I interpret the pictures at www.flarm.com
correctly, you have to look at the thing to get an idea of where it
thinks trouble is coming from, then work out of its real or not, then
work out what to do?
