Default Re: Coral Springs FL, Alert area Mid-Air

Here is the latest according to the Maimi Herald. It was a Cessna 150 and the twin Piper. The Piper was going into PMP and was cleared to descend to 2000 and about the be handed off to PMP tower. The 150 was out of LNA with one student pilot on board who was just out in the practice area. The Piper obviously being a low wing and the Cessna being a high wing didnt even see eachother. It said the controller tried to call out the traffic but it was too late. Once again... this was from the media, not from me.

I have always used 123.45 when out there. I find that a lot of people are opening flight plans or closing them out there, causing them to be on another freq.
