I believe that in the US the 496 can display uploads in real time of weather and traffic. I have never heard of this capability being proposed for UK. Anuone know if this is to come and if not why not? Assuming it is current info it sounds nice to have . Just been reading the Loop report on integrating Zaon traffic alert with the 496 which set me off wondering.
I thought about this also, It would probably only work with a similarly equiped aircraft, and as no one is going to force others to be so equiped, not worth it
