Default US pilots concerned with collision avoidance, read the FLARM threads

Trial lawyers are a powerful lobby in the US, and they would thwart any
attempt to limit liability. It has been attempted before on medical issues
and failed. The trial lawyer associations can outspend any group that
attempts, for the purpose of public policy and safety, to impose limits on
liability.

Sadly, congresssmen are controlled by that lobby and will not use reason and
common sense to pass a law that would protect general aviation - or any
other group. And, collectively, the trial lawyers have absolutely no
conscience.

I am a lawyer and embarassed by how the system has got out of hand.

Colin
