These thing will happen. 90% of us will say " There but for luck goes I" and try and learn from and hopefully avoid such incidents in the future. !0% will learn nothing from it and insist that it will never happen to them as they are too perfect. It is interesting that when Smudger found that the majority of posts opposed his opinion he threw his toys out of the pram and said that he was not going to play any more. That said it all. I know that the two guys, or gals, who were involved will have learned a lot and it will never happen to them again. I believe, also, that many others will have gained something from this. If I learned one thing from my 40 years in military and civil aviation, it was that I was far from perfect and that the day that I thought that I was, was the day to retire.
Safe and enjoyable flying to you all.
