2.5.3 Other traffic
It is not enough to use your vision to keep the plane level. You must also keep
a close eye on other traffic.
Make sure you are visible so that others can see you (light). If others know you
are nearby, there is a greater chance that you will be seen.
Therefore: submit position reports and turn on your transponder!
Remember your sunglasses, they are indispensable in sunlight - even sunlight
over snowy areas, where you risk becoming snow-blind due to too much light
if you do not protect your eyes.
2.5.3.1 Collision risk
Two planes on a collision course:
If the relative bearing between two
planes remains constant, the image of
the other plane will appear stationary.
It will just grow in size.
Fast.
And suddenly the risk of collision is imminent.
