ForeFlight Adds 'Runway Alert' Deconfliction Feature - AVweb

In complete agreement that the last thing needed is another alert…look out the window, listen to radio and build SA. ADS-B can contribute to that SA, but it can also make it worse inside a couple miles.

And for anyone throwing the luddite flag…did FF analyze the use-cases to see how the ADS-B spec was written?..don’t doubt they can alert on the ADS-B input, but is the input valid? kind of like the folks who got bit by Nexrad before understanding limitations…and if it was really good in close, how come ATC towers without radar aren’t allowed to ref ADS-B? given the amount of self-generated traffic I’ve had to ignore in close when ADS-B can’t resolve me vs multiple tgts that are all me, I’d hate to see a low time pilot who already has a full bucket doing multiple belly checks below 500’ short final panicking over traffic that isn’t there.
