Hi all,
As an engineering student I independently came up with the concept as
a final year project - then discovered FLARM had beaten me to it a few
years earlier. As part of my research at the time I am confident I
found promotional material where the FLARM protocol would be "released
to the public in the interest of safety". Clearly this policy changed
as adoption increased.
My recollection also, Al. I'm pretty sure I have archived some early
Flarm technical specs that went into great detail about the messaging
protocol. Flarm themselves admit on their website they haven't been
encrypting for the whole time they have been selling the units.
No, I can't be bothered digging it up.
