Sounds like a positive change, with one caveat: What happens if there's more than one simultaneous collision risk? Does it show the first one detected, the most recent one detected, or all of them? (just thinking aloud -- if you're in proximity with other aircraft and you take evasive action, you may end up creating new collision risks with the others!) - mark -------------------------------------------------------------------- I tried an internal modem, [EMAIL PROTECTED] but it hurt when I walked.
