Thanks, Bob and all, interesting info and links.

I was originally concerned that another aircraft was sharing MY airspace that would not be able to tell the difference between me and a large bird. Can you imagine the remote pilot's screen? "microshaft has detected a fault in the forward motion of your aircraft. send/dont send report?"

Now that I understand it is a military weapon, probably armed to dispatch other aircraft not sqauwking its tune, I feel a WHOLE lot better, thanks!

Knowing also that its developement is overseen by the cretins running the US military -with a well documented history of public aviator abuse, lack of airspace boundary understanding and total lack of accountability has me curling into the foetal position.

Bagmaker, getting bored anyway.
