Caldwell CDW 2002 Mid Air Probable Cause Released

yep.. sounds like an FAA finding.. pilots were ultimately responsible to
provide visual lookout... but the FAA tower controllers failures and
managements manning decision are secondary factors..

bet to see the same type of report for the on runway intersection accident
at VGT last Sept.

The National Transportation Safety Board determines the probable cause
(s) of this accident as follows:

The inadequate visual lookout of both pilots. Factors in the accident
were the FAA controller's failure to provide a traffic advisory, the
improper decision among the three controllers to leave only one
controller in the cab, and night conditions.
