Hello,
During my flights some questions about TCAS system came to my mind.
1. ABV and BLW "buttons" on MFD does not work. I mean that I can click on them, but TCAS is still in NRM mode.
2. Resolution Advisories are inappropriate. Here are some examples:
It was probably UL980 airway. I was at FL360 flying westbound, AI aircraft was flying eastbound at FL350. When we were close to each other (but there was still 1000ft separation) I heard: "descent!" after few seconds "descent now!".
Somewhere above English Chanel: me:FL350 flying eastbound; AI aircraft FL360 flying northbound. There was about 10NM between me, and it, but I heard: "climb" and "climb now".
I was descending to FL150 somewhere in England, AI aircraft was in the vicinity, but at about FL70. Than I heard traffic alert.
These situations show, that sometimes TCAS wants me to die :) Is that normal, or can you correct it? I have Windows 7 HP 64-bit, FSX, Embraer 175&195 v2, UTX, REX.
Thank you,
Patryk
