Solution #105 — Enhanced Airborne Collision Avoidance System (ACAS)
New altitude capture laws aim to reduce unnecessary Airborne Collision Avoidance System (ACAS) alarms and reduce the risk of mid-air or near mid-air collisions between aircraft as a last-resort safety net, by automatically reducing the vertical rate at the approach of the selected flight level (only when a Traffic Advisories-TA occurs), leading to less traffic perturbation, while not increasing flight crew workload.
