    New Traffic display for ADSB-In devices

    I thought about that as well, Maybe as an alternative to the TCASII icons (Diamonds, squares and circles oh, my) I could have icons depicting the real aircrafts that's heading your way. That would be cool... right

    New Traffic display for ADSB-In devices

    It seems that Garmin Pilot is not adhering to TCASII icon usage could be wrong on this one. Check out this booklet: https://www.faa.gov/documentlibrary/media/advisory_circular/tcas%20ii%20v7.1%20intro%20booklet.pdf Peter

    New Traffic display for ADSB-In devices

    Thanks for your feedback. Yes it is useful, thank you. Two things: 1. Not everyone uses Foreflight. 2. The Type and Model is just for US and Canadian registered aircraft, I could extend it, I guess, but it helps to spot the target. This could probably be improved 3. Yes I have some other...

    New Traffic display for ADSB-In devices

    BTW <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> How much does a TCAS system cost? between $25,000 and $150,000 TCAS is not fitted to many smaller aircraft mainly due to the high costs involved (between $25,000 and $150,000). <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> For Example the Garmin GTS 8000 is...

    New Traffic display for ADSB-In devices

    So https://crewdogelectronics.com/ makes a good profit. BTW this is with the outside antenna as well as AHRS and Battery. I don't think you can do all of that for under $200. More to my point. Swedeflyer

    New Traffic display for ADSB-In devices

    No you're not missing anything. That's the beauty, you have a choice, if you're happy with it, stick to it. Now one might ask why another App for this? My issue with them is that they are superimposing traffic on a VFR type map, that gives you further clutter. Sometimes it's hard to discern...

    New Traffic display for ADSB-In devices

    Martin, You're absolutely correct, obviously a passive ADSB solution does not have this capability (TCASII). Currently TCAS II spec only has 3 types of advisories: 1. Climb, Climb (Sometimes more than 2000ft/min 2. Descend, Descend (Sometimes more than 2000ft/min 3. remain level Now for GA...

    New Traffic display for ADSB-In devices

    ADSB should be reliable, (I have used it for several years now). It might be (not sure though) that the applications are not clear enough or maybe loosing data. Like I said in my original post, I am looking for a few fine folks to try this app a hands-off TCAS type display. Peter

    New Traffic display for ADSB-In devices

    I believe I am addressing some of your issues. My approach is to mimic the TCAS II specifications, this is what you see in any modern commercial aircraft be it a Boeing 777 or an Airbus 3XX series. Peter

    Not at this moment, if this approach to a low cost TCAS, then I would consider it. Peter

    New Traffic display for ADSB-In devices

    I Need some of you guys to try out a new Traffic display (Android only) for ADSB-In devices (Wifi only). I developed an Android App (called TrafficAssist) that closely follows the TCAS II protocol and displays the data as you would see it in a commercial aircraft. TrafficAssist will display...

    Filing a Flight Plan vs Flight Following

    I wonder if just keeping your ADSB-out equipment on even outside the Mode C veil will help in an unexpected off airport 'landing'

    Free Android/smartphone App for ATC Flight Following

    I am about to make another version of the app, there are some annoying quirks, and it looks silly on a tablet, was going to make it more tablet friendly, maybe increase the font size and a Quit button on the main screen. If you have suggestions, gripes and ideas I'd love to hear them. Cheers...
