Yesterday an inbound to Dubai was stopped off at FL280. He wanted to know where the traffic was. "5 miles in your 8 o' clock crossing left to right, a B777". Pilot shocked, "He's not painting on the TCAS!! Oh, there he is". A lot of guys seem to have an unhealthy reliance on TCAS these days. It's become a traffic manager as well, now.
Lucky I don't take any crap
