My information was that the frequency range used is not available from
the FCC. If it were solely a liability issue, I do not understand the

To quote the manual quote:
Likewise, operation of FLARM is forbidden in aircraft in which one or
more of the occupants resides in or is a citizen of the USA or Canada.

So according to this, a US citizen, may not fly in the Alps, as most
sailplanes there do have FLARM installed.

Seems to me there have been a lot of people already ignoring this
"rule". I'm sure it is in there as "protection" against a liability
claim.
