Miles Magister, a reminder to avoid any misunderstanding, the 1.3 buffet margin is a turning flight requirement. TCAS manoeuvres are only vertical and are approximately defined by pull up (1.25 g), reaction time, and the required altitude/rate change; these factors (and configuration if applicable) define the TCAS limit at maximum altitude.
