Notable Power Flarm saves - Is it 'worth it'?
Would anyone disagree that a Transponder is now a better choice than Flarm in the USA?
I had been flying with a FLARM core for a couple of years now and installed a transponder last winter. Got it certified, too. It is 'only' a used Mode C but the combination adds to the safety. I was flying in NM last year with the FLARM screen set to 6 miles, when a transponder target moved across the screen in a very short time. It may have been a jet going into Albuquerque and I am sure, he didn't see me at all since he had no way of knowing I was there. If you have the space on your panel and can afford it, get both.
