Ever been this close to an aircraft while you were on final approach?

This happend when I got even closer


To be sure of hitting the target, shoot first and, whatever you hit, call it the target.
There's no sense in being precise when you don't even know what you

My first flight in a 172 on August 20, 2004

oucho

Happened to me once at Ford Island. The 2 runways are the same runway, just different sides. So when i was getting up to speed, another plane was coming the other way on approach, needless to say, we collided

Stupid ATC!

I was flying my Beech B200 to Beijing once... 0 visibility weather... a 727 flew right past me, like an inch away from my skin. Good thing the plane was equipped with an anti-collision alerting system, the word "Traffic! Traffic!" almost blew my ear out! :o
Cheers,

I almost came close. On final from a sunset flight around the Three Sisters I noticed the runway got bright real quick. Just as I approached the end of the runway, I realized that a Cessna Caravan was taxiing to Runway 34. (See the "Beautiful Bend OR Sunset thread a few pages back).
Good thing I did a go-around
