At the moment, I do the watching and I have the sore neck to prove it. We have been flying, as a formal club at Pierce since the early 70's and never had an accident with full sized aircraft.
When the video system is finally functioning and I go under the blanket, there will be other eyes following my glider, for the reason you mention and so that the glider will actually make it back to me at the end of the flight.
If a full sized plane does cross overhead, east/west for example, we will immediately turn and fly north or south, if either planes can be a factor.
