Curious About Mid Air Collidions

[Keith Black]

Another way to look at this is that thirteen D6 people were "impacted" by mid-airs in a 13 month time frame.

When you look at it that way it's really quite startling! 

Disclaimer: I'm including LA in D6 since they've now moved to our district.

  > #7. Mid air in Nederland

  Mike, you're correct, that is another I was present for. Seems like there are still others I've forgotten.

  BTW, the "fellow from LA" said he had been involved in three (I think) mid airs at Nederland. I don't think he'll be back.

  Revised List (in order):

  1. Brian Young & Bobby Zikes - planes totaled - Dallas 
  2. Lance Van Nostrand & Ron Bar - planes saved - Hot Springs
  3. Mark Hunt & David Cotton  - planes totaled - Temple (I think)
  4. BW Ponder & Sean McClain - planes totaled - NATS
  5. Nat Penton & "fellow from LA" - one plane totaled, one moderate damage, repairable -  Nederland, TX
  6. Gray Fowler &  Paul Villarrubia - planes saved - Dallas
  7. Keith Black & Art Wagner - planes totaled - Hot Springs

    #7. Mid air in Nederland last year, a fellow from La (sorry can't remember the name) and I believe Nat Penton hit. Nat's plane was ok but the other a total.

      These come to mind as ones I've witnessed involving D6 pilots since Sept. 2003:

      1. Brian Young & Bobby Zikes - planes totaled - Dallas 
      2. Lance Van Nostrand & Ron Bar - planes saved - Hot Springs
      3. Mark Hunt & David Cotton  - planes totaled - Temple (I think)
      4. BW Ponder & Sean McClain - planes totaled - NATS
      5. Gray Fowler &  Paul Villarrubia - planes saved - Dallas
      6. Keith Black & Art Wagner - planes totaled - Hot Springs

      I feel like I'm forgetting at least one, perhaps others will chime in.

        While talking pattern the question came up about how many mid air collisions there were in a season flying pattern.
        I thought I would post the question and possibly get an idea of the number from the your answers.
        At the contests that I attended in 2004 I counted four, let me know what contest you attended that experienced one.
