Good use of the FISH FINDER, aka, ADSB...

This guy was UNDER the scattered deck and I was on top for smoother air...I think we saw each other -- I definitely saw HIM.

It is harder than it looks to physically spot a moving plane at 2-3 miles away and beyond...especially in ground clutter and with clouds.

More of what traffic looks like on the FISH-FINDER (aka iFly + Stratux) and in real life!

This has really made formation and caravan flying a joy! Thanks fellas!

The iFly "fish finder" helps us stay safe from mid-airs! Thanks!

Here is a traffic pretty close - not sure if he saw our THREE SHIP formation he flew in front of and under by 600 feet - we had him in sight...

TALLY-HO on the traffic - but the fish-finder alterted us to him...

Flying the other day and saw two planes coming at each other to land on opposite runways (on the FISH FINDER, aka, adsb). Called out to both and they averted a near mid-air on the runway...thanks iFly!
