My TC always drops to one when I get a plane radar contact giving me plenty time to dive. Doe's stock not do this?

Another thing to remember is planes will show up on radar at different ranges depending on the size of plane and height it's flying. Larger planes will show up from 18NMs, smaller ones flying low 5-8NMs.

That's why I went into the main.cfg folder and adjusted it. The plane contacts only brought the TC to 8 or 4 I can't remember. That's because surface radar shows the craft as an unknown ship moving very fast, so the TC only comes down to 8. If your crew spots the plane first (under TC) THEN the TC will drop to 1 and your probably in for it by that time anyway.
