#3 Hey, this is no laughing matter. In every airplane collision in recent memory, *both* planes were in the same hemisphere. I'm starting to see a suspicious pattern here.

#4 OK, Assume planes land,(They have to sooner or later) They're within a mile of each other, (Airports are too small) you can see the hype is greatly overblown.

They were bout 4 MILES from each other, a safe distance.

#5 They're not "near misses". They're "near hits"...
