Avoid head-on collision? Forward facing LED strobe?

FLARM tells you that there is another glider. It does not really
tell you where it is - you need to look and find it. Week ago I got

Kimmo,
It does if you have the right equipment and set it up properly. LX8000 /
9000 with voice shows you and tells you where the other glider is.
Link your Flarm to any navigation display, for example LK8000, you can
maintain awareness of other gliders and will have a vey good idea where to
look if a glider triggers a warning. This works very much better than the
standard Flarm display, and IMO better than the various Flarm analogue
displays (though I have one fitted as belt and braces).
