Greetings, I just finished my third 540 MLB100 installation. All three are in Beech Bonanzas. All three are 10.2.1. All three are coupled to the exact same instruments and configured exactly the same way. However, none of the three will display TFR's. Wx, traffic, sigmets, are all good. The only common denominator is ME. What am I doing wrong????? Mike ------------- Mike |

Yes sir, Busch stadium is one mile away. ForeFlight displays the TFRs. Mike ------------- Mike |

Hi Mike- I am sure that someone will correct me if I am wrong, but I do not believe that ADS-B In includes the location and effective times of stadium TFRs. I believe that ForeFlight compiles the information needed to display these TFRs, and the downloads it via an internet connection. Once the information is downloaded, it stays on the iPad whether it is online or not. I would not expect to see stadium TFRs on a device that was only displaying data from the ADS-B In datastream.

I believe you also have to be within 50 NM of the active or pending TFR before it will display on the IFD. |
