It’s been a while since I posted an update on my flying, and a lot has happened but also, a lot hasn’t happened due to awful weather in California. I wanted to tell a little story about a surprise encounter with another aircraft which appeared to come out of nowhere and then disappear seconds after having a close approach with me. We didn’t come close enough to make me feel any danger, but, at the same time, I was concerned that another aircraft wasn’t talking on the radio and their position wasn’t visible to me until I was in visual range.
There’s lots to learn about how aircraft are tracked in the US, and by extension over much of the world.
