Using the SeeYou 3d view, you can see how each glider was on a
collision course with the other - no relative movement.

If you want to see the effect, the traces are available on the ASA
website - look for Sunday's contest flights for GY and 66.

LS6-b "66"

The traces show about 0.2 mile lateral and about 100ft vertical
separation. Since I had 66 in sight, and was comfortable with the
separation, I didn't change course.

We were both well clear of cloud base at the time. The real risk is
when 2 gliders are head on and both bumping the bases. (Not than
anyone would be within 1000ft of bases above 10k).
