Remarks

Originally I had this as an enum of the different values in 3.1.2.8.2.2 of the spec, but then when I read 3.1.2.8.4 it seemed to be saying that the RI field would change its meaning depending on values sent by the interrogator that elicited the ACAS reply. As we don't know what those values were we can't be sure what the meaning of RI is, and as the only useful information contained in 3.1.2.8.2.2 was the maximum cruise airspeed - which isn't really very interesting from a radar spotting perspective - I decided to just make it a raw number instead.
