I have to agree with Lee on this one as the controllers in my area are also
EXCELLENT! On one short x-c flight in some haze, I received a traffic
advisory that another aircraft was at 12:00 my altitude, approx. one mile.
While this particular call was later than most, I didn't see the traffic.
Immediately after I head my traffic advisory, I descended and turned. After
about 30 degrees to the right and 200 feet lower, I saw the traffic.
Probably the closest call I've had and I'm not so sure that without flight
following I would have seen the other plane in time.

Sorry Denny but I have to disagree with you. I don't believe ATC is out to
get me.
