Way too close together. I thought the camera might be making the planes seem closer than in reality until the pilot mentioned 18" and sometimes 6".



I can't imagine maintaining that distance from another plane's wingtip

I haven't flown in a long time so please help me out with my memory.
Do you maintain directional control on the runway with foot pedals and
