Posted: Fri Jul 16, 2004 11:21 pmI should have posted a screenshot of the traffic conundrum I encountered today at around noon. I was tracking the 300 degree course to VLN (north of Regina, Saskatchewan), looked up and saw a huge tangled mess of vapour trails, so I pulled up the FS Traffic Toolbox map, and lo and behold, there was probably about 60 aircraft (an estimate, I wasn't bothered to try to count them all) within 5nm of my position - and my traffic was only set to 65%.
I'll try to recreate the conditions next time I fire up the sim and I'll get a TCAS screenshot.
