Mid-air collision, Leicester Airport, Dec. 2016

"... The accident occurred because the pilots did not see each other’s aircraft in sufficient time to take effective avoiding action. Collision avoidance was by lookout and visual detection, which has limitations, and the low sun would have reduced the likelihood of the pilot of G-CLJK seeing G-CSFC in time. ..."
