Air Sense

[bmwbob]

I was out filming in the country on a hillside when air sense started alerting me of a nearby plane and alert got progressively louder and closer together till controller icon turned red. I was only about 150 feet in the air but dropped it down just in case and looked up to see a glider overhead at about 300 feet.

Pretty cool isn't it.

 

[Droning on and on...]

And here's the even cooler thing: The glider may not have even had an ADS-B transponder.

Airsense is an ADSB receiver, the glider HAD to have ADSB Out switched on for Airsense to detect it.
