The Captain of the 727 that had a mid-air in 1978 @ San Diego had over 10,000 hrs on 727's - he could've said the same thing !

Quote "My lookout can't be that bad.What's more whenever I fly with anyone else I'm always the first to spot any other aircraft. Thats 'cos I fly with my head out of the cockpit, not in it talking to idiots on the other end of a radio."

Congratulations, you've probably just set pilot/ATCO relations in Norfolk & Suffolk back about 10 years !
If the Norwich management need some more justification for CAS, those statements should do nicely !
