Flarm in the US this summer

FLARM is a major distraction in the US for people who are concerned about
collision avoidance. Unlike Europe, the biggest threat to gliders in

is other VFR or IFR traffic. If you want to upgrade your glider to
minimize
these threats, you need to use a technology that is compatible with the
US
ATC system; either conventional transponders and/or PCAS systems or
hopefully in the not too distant future ADS-B.

That's the kind of ass-munch BS that we'd expect from some f*wit at the
FAA/CAA/EASA.
Please tell me you're not - then we might be able to educate you.
