I overheard this "discussion" on 121.5. The aircraft that was approached from beneath said that the offending aircraft was indicating only 300 feet below. What amazed us was the way the offending aircraft (not sure what the callsign was) seemed to think it was OK as he had good comms with the aircraft he thought he was approaching. Can you imagine being in the cruise at about 40 West when some plonker climbs to within 300 feet of you to take a photo? And then he says "I'm sorry but don't worry, I thought you were someone else and I have good comms with him!". Absolutely amazing!
