Ok my mistake, it can detect Flarm.
But it can't detect a transponder nor Open Glider network nor Pilot aware.
It uses a wifi connection to the iPad.
How many separate wifi connections can an iPad handle at one time?
I'm not very computer literate so that may be irrelevant.
Can SkyDemons and their various other flavours use multiple GPS signals from Pilot Aware and Open Flarm?
I don't want to knock it but it seems there are still a number of different systems out there that are each limited to being able to see "some" other systems but not all of them.
Could this device be used in conjunction with Pilot Aware instead of the Flarm mouse at £££ ?
Flarm may be extremely numerous but I'm under the impression that it is a short range device, designed to keep gliders separated.
How many of the numerous Flarm units are used by GA?
How many GA aircraft have a transponder?
How many gliders have a transponder?
If gliders fitted with expensive Flarm units also fit a Pilot aware in order to see/be seen by GA, gradually the take up of Flarm alone will diminish.
The cost difference between Pilot Aware and Open Flarm of times four is not really significant if the coverage is considered.
The cost of Flarm would put it out of consideration now that other systems are available.
