Actually midairs are pretty common during torque rolls and hovers

I always see several of these each year. 99% of the time it is always caused b/c of the idiot hovering is doing so in the middle of the runway with 10-15 other airplanes in the air at the same time making low passes. I always hover very low and in the center of the runway but I do so only when the traffic is very low at the field.
