GPS spoofing near conflict zones is feeding false position data into ADS-B broadcasts, creating phantom traffic that undermines the surveillance system modern aviation depends on.
GPS spoofing in the Eastern Mediterranean is generating ghost aircraft on ADS-B displays and triggering false terrain alerts on airliners - and the authentication fix was deferred decades ago.
The 2002 Überlingen collision killed 71 people when one crew followed ATC over their TCAS resolution advisory - the case that redefined automation authority in commercial aviation training.
The 2002 Überlingen collision killed 71 people after a crew chose ATC over a TCAS Resolution Advisory - and permanently changed how aviation trains pilots to trust the machine.
On July 1, 2002, 71 people died over Lake Constance when TCAS issued a perfect coordinated advisory that one crew overrode - a lesson every pilot must understand.
The 2002 Uberlingen mid-air collision killed 71 people after a crew followed ATC instead of their TCAS Resolution Advisory - here's what every pilot needs to know.
The 2002 Überlingen mid-air collision killed 71 people after a crew overrode their TCAS Resolution Advisory - a case study in why RA compliance is an absolute rule.
GPS spoofing over conflict zones is injecting false position data into ADS-B, creating phantom traffic on cockpit displays and generating false TCAS resolution advisories.
ACAS X replaces TCAS's fixed logic tables with probabilistic algorithms, cutting nuisance advisories by 40–50% while handling drones and eVTOLs alongside manned traffic.
Radio Hangar explores TCAS to ACAS X, the Climb-Climb-Now Voice in the Cockpit, and the Optimized Logic That's Teaching Collision Avoidance to Turn Left Instead of Just Up.
Radio Hangar explores TCAS, the Resolution Advisory, and the Automated Voice That Overrules Air Traffic Control When Two Airplanes Are Thirty Seconds From Hitting.
