Unfortunately we all fly invisible aircrafts.
Maybe one day all aircrafts will be required to use technology which exists
for many years and can eliminate midairs.

The creation of an aerobatic box is not some type of
shield that will protect your aircraft. Only your eyes and your
actions can do that.
Dear Airmen/Airwomen:
There are no guarantees even when we have procedures in effect (aerobatic
box).
That is the lesson to be learned. My heart goes out to the family and
friends
of these Airmen, what a tragedy.
I came within 5 feet of an American Airlines MD 80 out of Burbank airport,
and
we were both talking to the same controller (at slightly different times
so I
did not hear the airline clearance). The controller said "sorry guys my
fault," but that would be of little of little condolence to the 92 souls
if we
had hit. Ultimately we can only depend on ourselves. What if you are on
a
victor hwy at FL20 and someone busts the Class A airspace in front of you?
it
is dangerous business even if we just do it for fun and we must always be
aware.
