Abstract
A traffic collision avoidance system (TCAS) for use in a first aircraft is disclosed. The TCAS includes TCAS circuitry providing output data as a function of a location of an intruder aircraft relative to a location of the first aircraft. A display device coupled to the TCAS circuitry receives the output data. The display device is adapted to provide a graphical representation of the altitude of the intruder aircraft.
