In the US, standard procedure is that IFR traffic is not routed around VFR airplanes, even if they are transponder equipped. If you are lucky, the IFR traffic will get a traffic advisory. Keep your fingers crossed that the IFR traffic has TCAS and that the pilots follow the RA instructions. Do you have a reference for this? It seems contrary to the purpose of having transponders, and is not what I or other pilots I know experience. -- Eric Greenwell - Washington State, USA (change ".netto" to ".us" to email me) - "Transponders in Sailplanes - Feb/2010" also ADS-B, PCAS, Flarm http://tinyurl.com/yb3xywl - "A Guide to Self-launching Sailplane Operation Mar/2004" Much of what you need to know tinyurl.com/yfs7tnz
