What brand TCAS? Are you using a 28v or 12 v system? What kind of display?
Are you actually flying now, or still playing MSFS?

He wouldn't know because he's sitting in coach munching on peanuts.

It doesn't even do that.

Why the hell do we even deal with it any more? For the love of god
everyone just killfile and move on.

How about complaining to it's ISP for violating the charter of the
rec.aviation groups where it doesn't fly ror have any intent to - go
back to the sim groups where it belongs. This is truely, seriously
getting silly. I killfiled it yonks ago but keep getting all the
replies. Ignore and it will eventually go away and maybe we can get a
number of useful groups back.

ISPs have to deal with one person complaining about another all day long.
About 99.99% of those complaints go into the wastebasket. There's no
requirement to obey any charter (which hasn't been violated, anyway). There
is no violation of TOS. And often the ISP isn't even providing the newsgroup
service (lots of people here use Google, alas! or some other dedicated
newsgroup service).

These unmoderated Usenet groups have grown to be useless.

Pilots who do not fly professionally should join the AOPA Forums, which
are moderated and require some measure of proof of credentials. There
are some ****ing contests there, like any reasonably open but moderated
forum.

Professional pilots can join any number of forums. Propilotworld is a
fairly good one, which permits pilots who fly for a living to discuss
technical issues about flying and a broad range of job related and
personal concerns. Most important, the moderators check your FAA airman
records before they allow you to join.

I've had it with this forum and and hitting the master kill switch.

The sim provides the TCAS input for the display (which is the only simulated
part), so brand is not relevant. Likewise for the electrical system.

What kind of display?

In the Baron, the display is a Sandel ST3400. In the airliners, it's part of
the overall avionics suite, which I think is made by Honeywell and other
subcontractors.

Are you actually flying now, or still playing MSFS?

If you cannot tell, then it doesn't matter.

You don't even know who makes the traffic avoidance system? Is it based on
TCAS, TIS, or ADS-B, not that you'd know the difference.

By your response, it is obvious that you are not actually flying, and still
trying to convince people that your comments actually mean something based
upon your playing MSFS. How do you turn it on? What color is the display?
Who makes the traffic system?

Of course, you don't know the actual answer, since you have never used any
of these systems, don't know how they actually work, or what they mean. This
is simply an extension of the fact that you do not fly.

There are multiple components, and in any case, it's a simulation.

That depends on the aircraft.

So, you don't know?
