he is talking about the two radios in one plane, not plane #1 and plane #2

There is my answer.

Can you get a resolution advisory if one of the conflicting aircraft is not TCAS equipped?

Can you get a resolution advisory if one of the conflicting aircraft is not TCAS equipped?

Yeah as long as it has a transponder. I would say 90% of the ones I know of involve that.

 

[LV-ARG]

Btw i just realized that its called Resolution Advisory yet it is mandatory to comply with it. Time for a name change?

Resolution Advisory sounds better than You Gonna Die Directive.
