one more TCAS question - vertical/horizontal range???
Today I was flying at around 6000ft in the outback of Australia (definitely no radar coverage) and as usual my IDENT sign on the transponder wasn't blinking.
I saw a jet coming towards me on converging heading somewhere up in flight levels and the IDENT started flashing...
What's the vertical/horizontal range of the TCAS system in heavy jets, I thought it was only 2000-3000 feet above and below???
Any good answers are appreciated!!!
