Sometimes good pilots just make bad decisions, and its generally just dumb luck when we survive to tell the tale.
I don’t get it, there’s a few things that spring to mind
1) poor decision making
2) poor flying skills
3) where the hell were you looking
4) lack of knowledge
5) disregard of the rules
Are you really saying that you’re a good pilot and went IIMC or am I missing something?
