In 35 years of flying in Oz and NZ, I have had a few interactions before - but never such a close encounter! The really scary bit is that I, and my pilot passenger, were actually looking out front at the time and didn't spot it earlier.

The Zaon XRX has been ordered and will be in the FTDK, interfaced with the Garmin 496, the next time we take to the air.

I will never know if the XRX would have detected yesterdays aircraft (I suspect not as I think I know it!) but what the @#$%!
