Pilot saves the day following a midair collision

[stickandrudder]

Riporto un interessante articolo, anche se relativo a un incidente di qualche tempo fa: http://askcaptainjonspplhelp.wordpress. ... collision/

[Valerio Ricciardi]

L'articolo descrive, direi anche in modo efficace, gli sforzi di una persona per salvarsi la vita, insieme alla sua compagna di volo. E fin qui,nulla di strano, per quanto certo ha dimostrato un non trascurabile skill.

Questa parte, però, mi ha commosso:

Both pilots have dedicated themselves since the accident to improving safety. Oppermann now is researching possible improvements to the present cruising-altitude rules — some of them proposed many years ago — that he feels would reduce the possibility of midair collisions.

Orendorff has begun speaking at safety meetings on how to avoid midair accidents. Among her concerns are yoke-mounted GPS receivers that draw a pilot’s attention away from the windscreen. Both pilots have become soldiers in the war against accidents.
