Funny story - A pilot brought one over from WA to the last Nationals and only then found out it wasn't working properly as there was no other FLARM in WA to link up with.

Sort of sad and lonely really.

Honestly, that story isn't sad and lonely, its mildly frightening.

In particular, it highlights that you can mandate at a comp that everyone has a FLARM unit, but you (obviously) can't mandate that they all work - i.e. we've all still got to remember these things (like ourselves) are fallible, and fly accordingly.
