Hi Bravo 73

Doh! I didn't spot that thread on Collision Avoidance - sorry.

Yes, I do have a Gazelle, and fortunately, it's fitted with high intensity strobes. I've always appreciated that an FIS is my responsibility, but as often as not, certainly in the south anyway, it's all that's available due to height restrictions. In the last few years, and on a few too many occasions under an FIS, I've become increasingly aware that controllers don't have the time to warn you of traffic which is clearly a little too close for comfort.

I'll go for TCAS, try the landing light, and will run the blade idea past the engineers.

I'll also try not to blink!
