FLARM is a highly flawed product and I won't have it in my aircraft.

Mark, long time no see.

I really recommend that you install Flarm and see how it does. I am still flying out of DKX, and there are a number of power planes with ADSB now that I can see on Flarm.

BUT at the Sports Class Nationals in Mifflin, all competitors had Flarm but four. All the contest days were ridge, with the practice day ridge and mixed thermals. Flarm was INCREADIBLY useful when we had closing speeds of 250 mph , and also really useful when someone came up from behind of the side. With the overcast sky on several days it was difficult to see other traffic, and it helped tremendously.
When the guys came by that did not have it, it was a very different experience.

Please don't fly any competitions that I am in, unless you install Flarm.

No its not perfect, but it is really quite good for its intended purpose.
