I find all this talk of see and be seen, well rather misplaced here and point less. We all know the out come, if not the reason and this should not happen to any aircraft on short final to a commercial airport (or another airport for that matter) as tragic as this is, this could very easliy have been a 737 with loss of a 100+ lives and answers are required in due course, to make sure as far as is possible that it never happens again at any airport or ideally anywhere else.
Back to see and be seen, not as easy as it sounds, i was flying in the area on the day and vis was good or very good, but even with TCAS and radar control some 'targets' were not eyeballed at even a few miles range and we knew where to look for them.
If you fly either for a living or fun we are all in the same sky and all are pilots, if you are not a pilot, then by all means express your sympathy at our loss, but please leave it at that, RIP
but for the grace of God
