In a report that will make you want to travel by car for the rest of your life, the FAA's records detail how "near collision" episodes are frequent and ongoing.

      According to the wiki…

      TCAS was a relatively new technology at the time of the accident, having been mandatory[Note 2] in Europe since 2000.

      Two years prior to the accident, in Europe, where the accident happened.

          Yours wasn’t a question, it was a statement, and a wrong one. TCAS adherence wasn’t fundamentally changed after the accident in question, but it brought to light it’s importance.

          So let’s come back to the original argument: following the erroneous instructions of atc over the TCAS resulted in the accident - if they had followed TCAS, like the DHL crew, they’d be alive.

            Hi actual pilot,

            Has other poster actually provided any evidence of or mentioned any qualifications to you? Because I think you’re arguing with a clueless idiot.

              yes, had they followed the tcas, the accident might have been avoided.

              There it is. I’m glad we could finally come to an agreement. Thanks for the entertainment.
