TCAS?


How does the beacon code affect TCAS performance?

It doesn't, but if you turn the box off and squawk nothing, TCAS won't see
you. So I suppose my point is that it doesn't matter what you squawk if
radar can't see you, as long as you're squawking something.

I believe that was Roy Smith's point.
