We had a clear-air collision of a seaplane and a small plane over Lake Coeur d’Alene a couple years ago. One pilot was an experienced commercial jet pilot. I think he owned the seaplane sightseeing company. It was the weirdest thing — beautiful clear blue skies, no other air traffic, and yet they found themselves at the same altitude and collided over the lake.
It’s astonishing to think that with two planes on final approach neither pilot spotted the other. Wow.
I've heard that there was a time when there were exactly two automobiles in the entire state of Kansas.
They ran into each other.
