Default Parowan midair?

Not only was this irresponsible, but it was most likely a violation of
the FARs:

49CFR § 830.5 Immediate notification.
The operator of any civil aircraft, or
any public aircraft not operated by the
Armed Forces or an intelligence agency
of the United States, or any foreign
aircraft shall immediately, and by the
most expeditious means available, notify
the nearest National Transportation
Safety Board (Board) field office when:
(a) An aircraft accident or any of the
following listed incidents occur:

[....]
(5) Aircraft collide in flight.

[....]
It is hard to see how you could meet the requirements of this section if
you 1st finish flying the contest.


By using your radio to ask your ground crew to phone the nearest NTSB
office? One could even argue that this IS the "most expeditious means
available."
