Don, can you back up your claim that Flarm was designed mainly for wave flying by providing some reference? Also,can you share with us your actual experience flying with Flarm? Ramy

I recall hearing that Flarm was developed to attempt to address the issue of mid air collisions and collisions with obstacles in the Alps. There is a big issue with coming around the corner of a rock and there is another glider. They also have a huge number of wires and such that you can't see.
Maybe the Flarm folks can clarify this bit of history. I'm sure we all would like to know.
