"Steven P. McNicoll" wrote in ink.net: The point is those things are unrelated to flight following. The original point was that had he had flight following, he might have survived. You are assuming that the OP meant that a controller would have alerted him. I interpret it that had he been listening to the frequency, he might have been more aware of his surroundings and situation and taken appropriate action. I don't think this is true at all. If anything, listening to the frequency would have detracted from his concentration on flying the airplane, a task that in retrospect he wasn't capable of performing in the prevailing conditions. I don't think adding to his mental workload would have contributed to better flying. Matt |
