The document is an Aircraft Accident Report by the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) detailing a midair collision between a USAF Convair VT-29D and a Cessna 150H over the James River near Newport News, Virginia, on January 9, 1975. The accident resulted in the deaths of all seven occupants aboard both aircraft and their complete destruction. The report identifies human limitations in the 'see-and-avoid' concept as the probable cause, exacerbated by reduced visibility of the Cessna against city lights at night. It includes recommendations for improving air traffic control to prevent similar incidents.
