PREFACE
____________________________________
____________________________________
Thank you for becoming an owner of the Ryan TCAD. You
have demonstrated a concern for yourself, those who depend on
you for flying safely, and a concern for others who share the
airspace around you.
Now you can fly with greater confidence, and greater peace of
mind, knowing you are equipped with the latest technology
available for collision alert.
This Operation and Performance Handbook is intended as a
guide to the capabilities and operation of the Ryan TCAD 9900
Series. By carefully reading this manual, you will become
familiar with TCAD, and how to get the best performance from
your investment.
WARNING
The TCAD does not detect all aircraft, and is designed as a
backup to the See and Avoid concept, and the ATC Radar
environment. See TCAD Limits in Appendix 2.
Refer to this handbook for TCAD limits.
CAUTION: This handbook, and the Ryan TCAD, are advisory
only. Any action recommended in this manual, or made as a
result of data supplied by the TCAD, must be in accordance with
applicable FARs and common sense. The pilot in command is
the final authority as to the operation of the aircraft.
