Here's some nice video footage for you of what I guess you could call a "runway incursion" when a Piper Cherokee landed right on top of a Stinson 108 at the Northwest Regional Airport in Roanoke, TX yesterday. Miraculously, no one was injured. What's that old saying about a low-wing and a high-wing not being able to see each other. It's no wonder that this is not the first time this kind of thing has happened.

It is also a great testament to the ruggedness of the Stinson!!! Lee W. Palm Beach
I fly out of that airport. The trees totally obscure the final approach path. For that reason, anybody who flies out of there without a radio is an idiot. For that reason also, I wait the number of minutes it would take for a NORDO aircraft to fly the entire final approach path before I will take the runway, just in case some dork is trying to hide from me.
Its like planes having sex...
There is nothing wrong with people flying classic airplane with out radios. I fly a 1946 Aeronca chief it dosent have an electrical system and there for no radio and i am not an idiot. that is very arogant and cocky to talk down about other people. i have grown up at that airport and fly there offten.
