Neither is safe if you do not have visual contact with the other
traffic.

If neither aircraft has visual contact with the other, and no other
information is available, neither aircraft should take any special
action. If visual contact is available, the pilot(s) with contact
should see and avoid. If no visual contact has been made by either
pilot, but one or both pilots has other reliable sources of
information allowing the aircraft to determine their positions
relative to each other, those sources can be used to determine what
action, if any, should be taken.

In this situation, it might help to share information on airspeed or
DME from the LAX VOR, either of which might help to locate the
aircraft in relation to each other. I suggest LAX because it's almost
at right angles to the SFRA route, whereas SMO would see both aircraft
one behind the other. Of course, if they are very close, DME might
not be reliable.

I've wondered in the past exactly how aircraft coordinate their
movements in the SFRA, since the corridor in each direction is
extremely narrow.


As previouls stated, had you ever sat in a real Piper and a real Cessna,
you would know that a climb in the Piper is not a 50/50 guess. But you
haven't and moronically continue to spout bull****.

You don't know **** from shinola.
