TCAS Question

Featured Replies

Hi all:

I have been working with the Falcon, downloaded Version 3.1 today, and flew KPBI-KBOS. All went well and I must comment on some great things about the Falcon from an FSX pilot perspective:

1. Great frame rates

2. Minimal VAS hit

3. A beautiful aircraft, inside and out.

I am looking forward to many hours in the air with this aircraft, as I did and continue to do with the Lear 35. The Falcon fills a hole I needed for a longer range bizjet.

One question I have in 3.1 is something I noticed with the TCAS. As I departed the PBI terminal area there was lots of traffic, and one aircraft close enough to trigger a TCAS alert. At that point it seemed that the TCAS locked up somehow, the display turned red, and would not respond to attempts to change the range as I flew up the coast to Boston. The control was set on TA/RA.Could someone advise me as to my error in procedure, or is there an issue here.

Thanks

Rick

Rick,

There is only one TCAS range implemented.
