Collision avoidance, in the air and on the ground, is one of the most basic responsibilities of a pilot operating an aircraft in VFR conditions. We have compiled videos, articles, and instructional materials that will benefit pilots of all experience levels to improve safety and hone collision-avoidance skills.
