During the course of our regional at Moriarty we had a very close encounter....something on the order of seven feet. One of the two pilots involved made a comment on twenty three point three regarding the manner in which the other pilot had entered the thermal. That evening our CD Tom Kelly examined the flights using SeeYou and then took both pilots aside (I'm guessing he did this one at a time, but don't know for sure.) The next day Tom presented the data for all to see as a morning safety briefing. He handled this in a most professional manner. No finger pointing, no guilt trips and totally non accusatory. Just the facts as well as what he thought might have lead to the encounter and what might have precluded the incident.( It should be noted that neither pilot was FLARM equipped.) I was very proud of the manner in which brother Kelly handled the situation and would like to say "hats off to Tom Kelly." Zulu
