    After seeing those images I am shocked, I have nearly 100 hours in a Warrior and I’m just stunned that even with half of its right wing missing and an aileron gone the pilot was able to land the aircraft and the plane itself didn’t suffer a catastrophic airframe failure

    In 1970 while stationed at Webb AFB in Big Spring, TX a T-37 from another training base had a mid air collision with a twin engine prop plane. The twin engine plane was conducting an aerial survey. The T-37 passed head on under the twin. The T-37 canopy was broken apparently by the nose wheel of the prop plane. The T-37 landed safely. The prop plane control panel was shoved back against the pilots. The pilots were able use their legs to push the control panel forward enough so the yoke had some authority and also landed safely. There was enough luck for a life time.

    Someone should break the news to the instructors that while their students are flying VFR & practicing IFR under the hood, they (the instructors) should be specially keen looking out for traffic, as theirs are the only pair of eyes in the airplane looking at the outside. Flying VFR with all eyes staring at instruments is asking for trouble.

    • @8literbeater
      @8literbeater หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Some controllers are not qualified nor required to be qualified to assign vectors depending on the airspace they're working and the equipment available. Because of that they can only make suggestions. In addition to that, the area where they had the collision and where they were looking for downed airplanes was well outside of the class D airspace that the tower controllers handle for that airport. (It's a 4 nm radius.)

    Another great video. I used to fly in and out of Lakeland and MZeroA has a great video on how to talk to ATC at busy time, Sun and Fun. I was there as well. The only thing he said and I agree completely that getting Flight Following is better than Cold Calls as the Tower than expects you!

    • @RetreadPhoto
      @RetreadPhoto หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      They’re not likely to be able to get flight following while doing simulated IMC and IFR training in a training area, since they’re not traveling point to point. There are a lot better resources out there than the one you mention, by the way, for ATC communications and general flight training.

    Interesting that the control tower radar worked perfectly well for observing and vectoring the search aircraft. Too bad that radar was useless in helping avoid the midair collision.

    • @F1fan007
      @F1fan007 หลายเดือนก่อน

      The accident aircraft were not using flight following and had not filed IFR. ATC has obligations to track anyone departing or arriving at the airport, IFR flights and flight following by request. Good example as to why flight following is a good idea.

    • @8literbeater
      @8literbeater หลายเดือนก่อน

      Also, the collision happened far outside their airspace.
