Near Mid-Air Collision

When people inquire about the nature of our work, I often point to this type of near aviation disaster as a compelling illustration of our mission. This incident highlights the critical importance of clear and effective air radio communications. In the world of aviation, where split-second decisions can mean the difference between safety and catastrophe, the clarity of communication between pilots and air traffic controllers is paramount.


The news story below serves as a stark reminder of the potential consequences that can arise from miscommunication or unclear instructions. It highlights our commitment to enhancing the quality of air radio communications, ensuring that messages are transmitted and received without ambiguity. Our goal is to implement advanced technologies and protocols that minimize misunderstandings, thereby improving overall safety in the skies.


By focusing on this aspect of aviation, we aim to prevent similar incidents in the future. Each time we refine our systems or develop new training programs for communication, we are taking steps toward a safer aviation environment. This near disaster not only illustrates the challenges we face but also reinforces our dedication to making air travel safer for everyone involved.


The positive outcome of this was due to the TCAS systems found aboard every large commercial aircraft. We’re glad to announce that the owner of Vox Pilotus wrote a TCAS course for a client over a decade ago that tens of thousands of pilots have taken in recurrency training.
