Not if the pilot is flying solo.

Your driving along and a car T-bones you....sure wish we had some kind of lighting system to tell us when to go and when to stop at busy intersections!

We're talking about airplanes here. Let's not try and apply TCAS to everyday situations.

Birds have a tendency to FOD out our engines, maybe we should kill all birds...

Ok, now you're clutching at straws.

But like most things, money is the prohibiting factor. Doing this would drive most GA guys out of flying. I would venture to say that most GA pilots are willing to take their chances rather than be driven out of flying.

Yes. And some student pilots would rather take their chances with the weather rather than learn how to do crosswind landings. Should we give them their certificates before they are proficient at crosswind landings?
