TCAS is the best thing ever introduced to Aviation. If two aircraft get close it advises the pilots. However if they get really close and impact is curtain the system will not allow for pilot judgement and takes over. Talks to the other aircraft and makes opp control effects...

I don't have TCAS in my light plane, but sure do have a mode c transponder so that should I ever get it wrong I won't be a bug on the screen of some Jumbo Jet.. I so have a cockpit cam and that would make a great Youtube clip.... Anyway was a bit of a worry. I bet the pilot had eyes like in the Mad Max movie
