Those who forget history are doomed to repeat it. Statistics are statistics, but reading the transcriptions...it's easy to be in that cockpit right next to them. |

I always get a charge from the photo of the two pilots turned around for their photograph whith the Baron visible in the windshiled behind them. Although the photo is contrived, it still gives me the shivers.

Some bonehead at 2000 feet in a C-150 tried to T-bone me in the left door... if I had one. He missed vertically by 25 feet or 30 feet. Classic case of head in the cockpit??? A couple of weeks ago, nearly identical situation. However, I saw that perpetrator coming early on. Like this dude, he took no evasive action at any time. Flying low is not for me anymore, but not much way to avoid this crowed airspace when transitioning from cross-country to landing or takeoff. Everyone - not only keep your head out of the cockpit, but on a very active swivel. The other guy may not looking out for you.....or even himself.
