Loosing a plane in a mid-air is never fun, but it does happen, and it's rarely anyone's fault. I flew for 10 years and never had a mid-air, quit the hobby for 15 years then got back in, and had a mid-air about a month after starting again. My plane was destroyed and the other plane landed with minor damage to the wing. No one's fault, just two planes ended up at the exact same point in the sky. Almost impossible to do on purpose. It does seem that it's always the more expensive plane that gets taken out. Must be one of those Murphy's law things. The best thing to do is put another one together and get back in the air as quickly as possible.
