TCAS for S76

What sort of TCAS do you 76 people have? I am getting tired of having to take avoiding action for the bugsmashers which appear from behind the thick pillars of the machine, despite constant head movements during visual scans. A little more warning would save a lot of adrenaline.

We are looking at putting it into our 76B, and would like to know what is the most popular fitment out there. TCAS 1? 2? I suspect that TCAS 2 is not really needed (as well as the $300,000 price tag!) What brands have an STC for the 76?

All replies appreciated.
