June 14, 20214 yr Flying today in a 172 from New Bedford, Mass., over Martha's Vineyard, to land at Nantucket at 1500 ft. I was startled to have an airliner pass just below me about 500 feet and in front of me about 1500 feet. No warning from ATC. Anyone getting warnings from ATC about other aircraft being too close to yours?
June 14, 20214 yr Generally yes. Are you using Live Traffic or AI? Regards bs AMD RYZEN 9 5900X 12 CORE CPU - ZOTAC RTX 3060Ti GPU - NZXT H510i ELITE CASE - EVO M.2 970 500GB DRIVE - 32GB XTREEM 4000 MEM - XPG GOLD 80+ 650 WATT PS - NZXT 280 HYBRID COOLER

June 14, 20214 yr Granted ATC is not perfect (even in RL) so maybe the traffic warning algorithm needs some tweaking.
