It would be interesting to read the reactions of this group if not the
photographer but the pilot had been killed by flying into a car which
was deliberately parked in the forseeable finish glide path.


A car leaping into the air like a kangaroo at the last moment? an
invisible car? Maybe a tractor or truck parked in a farmer's field a
hundred meters from the finish line? How about another aircraft disabled
on the runway?

Just how blind are we pilots allowed to be?
