Known issues: ATC speaks fairly slow in Falcon4. If there are lots of aircraft, and ATC is giving
lots of vectors, the buffer can get backed up. When traffic is called out, it may have already
moved from the location the traffic call was calculated for. If you have text display on, you will see
the traffic call at the appropriate time, but you may hear it 5 or 10 seconds later. Also, Falcon4 is
limited to the distance it can call out. It will only call traffic out in the following distances: 1, 2, 3, 4,
5, and 10 miles.

TACAN RADIO HORIZON
In previous versions of Falcon4, you could receive the TACAN no matter what altitude you were
at. A radio horizon has been added that takes your altitude into account when determining if you
can receive the TACAN or not. If you are 75 miles out and are receiving the TACAN, if you start
to descend, you will reach an area of intermittent reception followed by no reception. The altitude
that you loose the TACAN will depend on your distance from the TACAN site.

UPDATED NOSE WHEEL STEERING
The ground handling has been improved to simulate more realistic nose wheel steering
movement.
Known Issues: If you turn the NWS off while in a turn, it will immediately return to center instead
of a smooth transition. Also, the rate of turn at full nose wheel deflection is being looked at as it
seems a little excessive.
