This is not strictly an RV story, but anything that helps us learn to prevent a safety problem is good to look at. I saw this little video recently and it made me sit up, I was told that this was shot at Moorabbin (In Victoria Australia) keep looking at the left hand side of the screen.

The aircraft on the left was under the control of a student pilot with an instructor beside him, the instructor was distracted and did not notice that the student broke through a holding point.
It makes me shudder to think what might have happened if the landing aircrafts pilot didn't have quick reflexes, and enough skill (luck?)to prevent it from stalling.
I hope this works as I have never tried to upload a video before. (I have had several tries to get the video link to work, and all I can come up with is to use the URL above)
