That's why equipping GA aircraft with TCAS-equivalent systems makes sense; it puts the tools to avoid 99% of MACS in the hands of the GA pilot, not ATC nor the military. ADS-B would be way better than TCAS (not merely equivalent). TCAS is not sufficiently accurate in azimuth to provide horizontal escape guidance. -- Bob Noel Looking for a sig the lawyers will hate |

Can you compare the specifications/capabilities of TCAS vs ADS-B for us? It looks like ADS-B is on the horizon currently. |
