Joining a circuit in the overhead and heard two aircraft on the radio at the last minute joining at the same time. I looked over my shoulder and saw 2 x PA28s about 100m from me, same level, coming straight at me. The only time I've ever used full elevator deflection, scared me half to death. Not sure how the others didn't see me.
Another time was coming in to land, westerly runway during sunset, and as I crossed the airfield boundry another aircraft decided to pull onto the runway in front of me without checking the approach or listening on the radio, I went around and estimate I probably missed him by 15ft. He was utterly oblivious.
