the avoidance callers between both lines makes sense. He could
be consider a third judge. If he sound the horn means that both
pilots has the right to bail out and they can resume the fly. It has to
be organized. The pilots flying in line A will be instructed to go down
and cut the engine. The pilots in line B will be instructed to go
up. Of course if they are rolling they will need to stop rolling.
We need to think what needs to be done when we are flying vertical.
It could be one bail to the right and the other bail to the left or just both
cut engines. The avoidance judges will be the pilots that just finish
their rounds.</span></font><font color=black><span style='color:black;

only think of a few mid-airs, maybe three or so. Believe me when I say
that calling avoidance and breaking the sequence is not something that you want
to do in the heat of competition- it can really throw off a good
sequence. Having said that, with fewer mid-airs in IMAC
perhaps we can conclude that allowing sequence breaks to avoid potential
mid-airs makes sense for pattern too. </span></font><font color=black><span

is my third mid-air in four seasons. My first may have been avoided, but the
last two were a complete shock to both me and my caller. In fact, in mid-air #2
my caller said "you're good" (meaning we were not going to hit). The
other pilot's caller walked up to me and apologized saying that he told the
other pilot that he was in the clear. Therefore, I don't know how effective a
third "spotter" sitting between the lines could be.</span><span

being said, two recent events have given me an idea of how we might be able to
greatly improve this problem. The first light bulb was Vicente's suggestion of
the spotter that warns the pilots. The second event was my walk out to pick up
the fragments of my beloved Brio. As I was walking back I stood for a bit to
observe the planes looking down the flight path. It was amazing how clearly you
can see each plane as it moves in and out from the flight line. </span><span

face=Calibri><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:Calibri;color:black'>So
here's the idea: What if we sat a spotter at the corner of the box to watch
plane separation in the distance out dimension and then had the other spotter
sitting between the judges (or even back under the cover) watching in the right
to left dimension. These two spotters could use radios with headsets and
continually talk to each other. There are many times that planes appear to be
close to a mid-air from the flight line viewpoint, however, the number of times
that both spotters would be alarmed should be! fairly minimal. When this occurs
the spotter could sound an alarm (this deserves discussion as to the details)
and each pilot could peel off of their course. If one pilot froze the collision
may still be avoided by just one pilot taking action. Sure, this could cause a
mid-air, but viewing from two dimensions should help in alerting only when an
impact is probable.</span></font><font color=black><span style='color:black;
