adn.com | alaska : Investigator believes that pilots didn't see each other: "A federal investigator ruled out weather, mechanical failure and drugs or alcohol in the midair collision over the Palmer Hay Flats State Game Refuge last April that killed five people, three of them children.
That leaves investigator Clint Johnson with one thought: One or both pilots simply did not see the other. Johnson does not have the authority to determine probable cause in plane crashes, but his reports form the basis for such findings.
Both Cessnas were high-winged airplanes. As part of his investigation, he borrowed a friend's 170 and sat inside, looking for obstructions, Johnson said in an interview this week."
