You know exactly as much about flarm in the cockpit environment as all the guys who used to give me advice about flaps: nothing at all. In FACT: Flarm has made large US contests quite a bit less frazzling, and all of the guys who fly in these contests know this. The voluntary equipage rate was 90% at Perry. To these guys, you look like a complete fool. To anyone who flies the Alps, you look like a complete fool.

Your interest in spite is noted.
