Your tax dollars at work. :-(

Only the military is exempt from operations at speeds in excess of 250
knots below 10,000'. The kill a civilian in the US now and then due
to not being able to see-and-avoid at those speeds, but oh well....

Do you think you could see-and-avoid military aircraft on a MTR?

Those aren't your tax dollars. That's an old video and is from a
foreign country.

I can't believe the one shot of him head down reading a map at that
altitude. Especially since he wasn't lead.

Most of the jets in the video are Mirage F.1s and there is one quick scene
tpward the end of three Alpha Jets making a low pass over an airfield. A
lot of Air Forces in the world fly both types, but not the U.S.

As Usenet is a worldwide forum, it guess it depends on your country of
citizenship.

I've done my share of low level high speed flying (B-52 340KTAS and B-1
540KTAS and higher)
and I've done my share of dodging low altitude GA aircraft (500-1000ft AGL)
I do not want to know how many I did not see, but those I did were far
enough to miss with a Level-S.

Is there any equipment on board military aircraft to augment human
vision in deconflicting the airspace on MTRs?

not on heavy Bomber aircraft..
fighter type aircraft may engage their air-to-air radar mode when not using
it for ground avoidance
but then pick the air target out of the ground clutter,
