Default Avoid head-on collision? Forward facing LED strobe?

If you aggregate all pilots and all collisions, that's true.

As a rule, I avoid gaggles and crowded landing patterns. But I share the short local ridge and the cloud streets near the airport and I've had several head-on fly-bys.

Universal PowerFlarm is a much better solution.
