I think we should press for VCAS for every glider. It only weighs 150 kilos - and costs about £800K including fitting.
This was a joke ... right?

Personally I have no objection to installing Luneberg lenses in sailplanes; but it has to be kept in mind that these are purely passive devices, and will not trigger TCAS warnings.
