I've never actually seen a TCAS unit, so I'm not familiar with the turning-on procedure. There are many different types of unit, anyway. Additionally, TCAS may be integrated into other instruments, such as navigational displays, in which case it isn't turned on separately. There's no standard for such functions as avionics go, so variations are considerable. There is a standard for the way the traffic is displayed, however. |

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. QED |

Anthony, can you cite the standard that states how traffic is displayed? Of
course not, because you don't know. This is an extension of the fact that you don't fly and never have. .. |

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. 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. |

You don't even know who makes the traffic avoidance system? There are multiple components, and in any case, it's a simulation. 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? That depends on the aircraft. |
