This version offers numerous enhancements and includes comprehensive display of data from flarm. See the notes for details and screen shots of flarm warning display in action.
"The split screen Flarm alarm only activates when another Flarm equipped aircraft (glider) is judged to be a threat. There are no alarms for Mode C/ADS-B traffic."
Has a decision been made to never implement alarms for Mode C or ADS-B, or is this a feature that is still in development?

Of course not. This is simply where we are, today. I am not involved in the code myself (thank heavens) but I suspect the approach being taken at this point is to make use of the information as transmitted by flarm. AFAIK -- and I could have this wrong -- flarm does not provide collision "warnings" for adsb targets or txp signals.

Email from Gerhard this morning (thanks Gerhard!) points out that PowerFlarm does provide collision warnings for ADSB targets with danger level in a similar fashion to Flarm - Flarm conflicts. Good job, Flarm.
That being the case, it'll work in CN too.
