Over the years, I have posted several diatribes against Class D
(so-called)
"controlled" airspace.

Actually, too many Class D tower operators spend way to much time staring at
the radar repeater, if they have one, and not enough time looking out the
window with binoculars. It is like pilots who stare at the instruments and
don't look out the windows.

Class D may be controlled airspace, but that does not relieve you of the
responsibility to see and avoid. Even class B or A airspace does not relieve
you of that responsibility.
