In the meantime, why don't we get together and buy flarms

For one reason FLARM is not approved for use in US and for another I'm
not aware of any manufacturer that has published a date when it will
be available and approved for use in US.

I think if potential manufacturers were more open with plans,
specifications, and schedules there would be more interest.

More interest? Jeez I see a very large interest in the PowerFLARM.

The manufacturer has put back their data for availability.
Distributors like Craggy Aero are now stating availability of
PowerFLARM December 2010. See See http://www.craggyaero.com/collision_avoidance.htm

PowerFLARM cannot be legally sold in the USA without FCC approval, so
that date implies FCC approval. If you want to order one and have
questions about availability or other things call Richard at Craggy,
or any of the other dealers...

There has been lots of comments on r.a.s on specifications. Dave
Nadler, myself and others who are aware of some of the details have
clarified this where there was questions. Seems at least part of the
problem was there were people who wanted to look at the ButterFly/
PowerFLARM European web site and would not believe us that things
there may not exactly apply to the USA version of the product.

Folks are working on putting up a web site with USA specific content,
but in the meantime what else exactly is not clear?
