Greybeard,

Please explain what in my previous message was misleading...
I NEVER SUGGESTED TO SWITCH TO ALT OFF IN THE AIR,however TARA is deselected during the AFTER LANDING flow.
ARE YOU suggesting to keep the TARA mode until shut down?so we could all see eachother?Map is not showing aircrafts with ALTOFF on the GROUND but those with TARA selected.
I wrote seeing an aircraft on your map mode with altitude reporting ZERO on the taxiway parallel to runway interesting to say the least during a low vis take off.
XNDER/ALTOFF is required by many airports before asking for pushback.
