For what it's worth there have been 3 midairs resulting in bailouts in the
UK
since May. Two of them within about 5nm but 10 weeks apart (and not
originating at the same club), the other ~ 300nm away about 8 weeks after
the first)

As far as I know there were two FLARMS in the first, none in the second and

at least one in the latest.

Lookout remains the number one tool in our attempt to avoid hitting each
other, FLARM is a beneficial aid and I personally like it, but we must
know
how it works and how to interpret what it is telling us without forgetting
the
first bit.

It's your choice (or the choice is forced upon you) on what to do when it
happens but as I brief any P2s during my pre flight "when we have a midair

this is what I'm going to do, I suggest you join me"

Even more amazing and spooky if two nearly identical bailouts happened
recently with similar results. It really bags the question about flarm in
both midairs.
