In conclusion, I will express my own thoughts about how different generations based their purchases and career decisions on these concepts.

ATC had only provided separation to aircrafts under Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) and not aircrafts under Visual Flight Rules (VFR).

(Lawrence, pg186) Although both planes took off with an IFR flight plan, when they leave the controlled airspace they must not use the “see and avoid” technique which is still a common practice today. Both aircrafts were in an area of clear weather with little build up and in uncontrolled airspace. This means that they were to apply the see and avoid technique, neither did. The Crash Investigation panel suggested that the towering cumulus might have obscured the aircraft from each other. (Lawrence, pg187)
