Aviation Safety Reporting System

My student saw the plane. I never saw it. My student estimates the plane was roughly 50 feet from us. I don’t believe the other plane ever saw us.

The ATC audio recordings clearly show that this violation of landing aircraft right of way was INTENTIONAL. It was dangerous for both aircraft.

The Falcon pilot decided to disregard our radio calls and descend on top of us, getting as close as 200 feet above us, then cutting us off on our final.

The controller seemed to have invented a new and confounding, unpublished and unsafe procedure. This is a perfect example of normalization of deviance and if not addressed will result in another fatal midair.

Hoping the FAA can inform the public of failures caused by speakers and other common magnets near vital components and computers in modern aircraft. Outcome would have been completely different if the situation would have occurred in IMC conditions.

The grass strip was put in place last year unannounced and is not NOTAM’d. It presents a hazard using parallel operations within feet of other aircraft, including solo students.

The decision by the Cirrus SR20 pilot to proceed onto the runway without clear situational awareness posed a significant safety risk.

Another aircraft suddenly crossed right in front of our flight path, coming low and from the left. It was incredibly close and fast. We had no time to react.

While returning to the ramp, the owner explained some unique characteristics of the Lycoming engine installed in the aircraft. While it was appropriate to follow the procedures outlined in the Pilot’s Operating Handbook (POH), he shared practical advice based on his experience to better operate this specific engine model.
