iFly GPS Forum

John: the time between my posting my request for a filter on verbal traffic alerts and you conflating that with the sound of a mid-air collision was 19 days.  That seemed like a very delayed response.  That's all I was saying.

But, since you've brought it up again: I don't think being overrun with verbal warnings about traffic is a gain in safety.  I think appropriate verbal warnings would be.  I support what you're asking for.  But I'm saying that I don't want to get shoutouts about traffic that's not close to me, or is heading away from me, or is behind me (unless it's gaining on me).  It's anti-safety to have iFly filling my headphones with unncecessary warnings that could conflict with ATC, tower, or CTAF communications.

Agreed.  But in that 19 day period he posted 3 other times before his post about the sound of mid-air collision (as a reply to my post). So, he was on the forum.

I wasn't trying to make anything of it, though I did think it was somewhat peculiar therefore I mentioned it.  Maybe I was poking a little fun, but not trying to be mean.  I'll reiterate that I do support his request.
