Random thoughts 2
Is it legal/possible/reasonable to install just Mode A transponder (No
altitude reporting)? Whenever I hear "Traffic 12 O-clock 3 miles, altitude unknown" I look EVERYWHERE. ahead. Might this provoke more visual scanning by aircraft crews which could spot gliders without transponders in the same gaggle? A case of one protecting all? As a side benefit this would avoid the 24 months Mode C altimeter/encoder check. Bill Daniels
