I'm flabbergasted at how many of these comments refer to not following
the radio procedures. Yes the Citation should have called, but most important is that he didn't look.

He may have used the radio, he or the OP may have been on the wrong frequency, the OP may have had his volume down, etc. He may have spotted the inbound traffic and felt he had plenty of room.

The OP was on the correct frequency and had no trouble hearing and being heard on other transmissions.

Maybe he looked but didn't see. It happens. A Cherokee a half-mile away ought to be visible, but it's not a big target. Maybe he saw, judged that the Cherokee was not a factor.

That's unforgiveable. It's not enough to judge that you're doing no harm: you ought to consider the possibility that the other guy is going to interpret your actions differently. If you scare someone in an airplane, he might whang into you. In Martha's cosmos, that would be a Bad Thing. -- all the best, Dan Ford email (put Cubdriver in subject line) Warbird's Forum: www.warbirdforum.com Piper Cub Forum: www.pipercubforum.com the blog: www.danford.net
