Y'All,
Getting there late again. Every time I find someone has read my site talk
about traffic avoidance by selected altitudes and checkpoint avoidance I
find that I have increased my risk of a mid-air.

I have found a way to prove the validity of flying at selected altitudes.

Fly at 2750 feet AGL and watch the number of aircraft that pass above and
below you. Problem is that pretty soon everyone will be doing it and coming
at you from any direction.

Reasons not to worry are statistically great but one factor not mentioned in
this thread is that of the people involved in mid-air accidents 50% are
likely
to become survivors. Aside from the airport vicinity hazards, you must
listen and use the radio to wake up those who are coming at your rear with a
greater airspeed.
