Pattern Altitude
So I recently flew with a guy in his G1000 Cessna 182T and was made aware of some traffic thanks to the "TIS Traffic" system on-board. I assumed that was the same as Active Traffic, but quickly told otherwise. Unfortunately he didn't have any idea how to explain the difference other than saying it wasn't the same.
So. my question is, what are the major differences? Is it worth the expensive upgrade to an Active Traffic system if an airplane is already equipped with a TIS system? I'm getting close to finalizing a deal on a newer plane and wondering if I should tack that functionality on or live with the TIS.
