Avoiding action means just that. It is not the time to piddle about. Only had it once myself as a pilot. Was in a Cessna just east of LA with "SOCAL". Called pop up twin turbo prop, 12 o'clock and told me to descend. Actions were:
1. Control column full forward.
2. Look out.
3. Drop pen and nav log simultanouesly
4. Recover to level flight.
5. Regain control of bowels and pulse.
