How often do you do 90 degree clearing turns while enroute?


Actually, more than you might think! :-))


No doubt.

TCAS can give right/left/up/down commands and combinations, not just
up/down.


Currently TCAS only recommends changes in altitude and climb rates. It does
not recommend turns.

TCAS III would provide lateral direction but it is not currently implemented.

I fail to see how a 90-degree clearing turn would not have brought the
threat into view and provided an escape to resolve the TCAS warning.

Civilian pilots are not normally taught how to recognize and evade "threats."


Pontificating nonsense.

Unless by "threats" you meant a squadron of Japanese Zeros, in which
case it is babbling, pontificating nonsense.


Do you consider an non-identified airborne target closing on you with
a collision alarm going off a threat to your safety?

Anthony considers anything not incluced in MSFS a threat to his safety.

Hazards, not threats.


#1 Anthony method of not being wrong: Make up his own definitions of words.

threat (thrĕt) n.
1. An expression of an intention to inflict pain, injury, evil, or
punishment.
2. An indication of impending danger or harm.
3. One that is regarded as a possible danger; a menace.

haz·ard (hăz'ərd) n.
1. A chance; an accident.
2. A chance of being injured or harmed; danger: Space travel is full of
hazards.
3. A possible source of danger: a fire hazard.
4. Games. A dice game similar to craps.
5. Sports. An obstacle, such as a sand trap, found on a golf course.

You sure have a high failure rate when it comes to expressing your
thoughts (and I use that term loosely) clearly.


Actually, people with whom I communicate have a high rate of failure to
understand.

It seems to take you many tries to write what you actually mean.


I must often illustrate concepts in many different ways before others
understand.

The above difficulties in your ability to communicate arise from the fact
that you are an idiot and no one cares what you're trying to say. However,
the point is moot, since you also have nothing to contribute since you don't
fly and never have.
