Hi all,
As far as I'm concerned, given Flarm's lack of precision in
accurately pin-pointing a glider threat situation, taking avoiding action
before visually seeing the threat could well make matters worse. Let's
stick with the well-established "see and avoid" principle and

There has been some recent discussion over a glass of Red on how we should
be using our Flarms.
As glider pilots have been trained to lookout and when they see a threat
then they take avoiding action.
We have been told of an incident when two gliders were in a head on
