Look around, including up!

Reason #2312 why I love my RV - it has awesome visibility. Not just around, but also upwards. Comes in handy when people try to descend into you ("death from above") . If I had been in something with a roof, I'm not sure I would have seen him in time to avoid unpleasantness.

Looks like Ole and Sven are trying to beat you to the airport.

Nah, just another day like any other northeast of Ripon, WI...

An actively executed visual lookout scan is paramount to see-and-avoid. Well done, Chief, great write-up and photo.

That picture is remiscent of what I saw at Fisk last Saturday. The guy calling traffic at Fisk said "Are the two low wings over Fisk a flight?"

"NO!"

Looked around and there was a Cherokee in a 50 yard echelon formation with me. Why or how that happened I dunno. There was no traffic in front of me and I was running 100-105 knots to prevent someone from flying up my "6".
