Narrative:

This was a multi-engine training flight. I was in the right seat of an small aircraft and my student was flying under the hood. As we were approaching the jeffco traffic pattern at approximately 7500-7300 ft, I noticed another aircraft right of our aircraft and lower. I determined that, due to our altitude above and offset from the other aircraft, evasive action was not necessary. We were overtaking the aircraft at a high pace. So our present course was the fastest way to avoid. After I reported in to bjc tower for landing, another aircraft asked tower if nx was on frequency. Tower replied affirmative, and the aircraft reported a near miss. On mon, X, mr Y called from the FAA to inquire on this report. He said that the pilot reported a 30 ft near miss. If this is an accurate statement, then I did not ever see the aircraft and therefore could not take evasive action. It is possible that this other aircraft did have a near miss with another light twin and since he heard my numbers on the tower frequency assumed it was me. I do not know what solutions I can offer for this situation because I'm not certain that it was my aircraft that was involved.

Title: AN SMA TWIN FLT INSTRUCTOR RPTS THAT THERE MAY HAVE BEEN A NMAC, AS WELL AS A LESS SEVERE CONFLICT, IN THE BJC TFC PATTERN UNDER TWR CTL.

Narrative: THIS WAS A MULTI-ENG TRAINING FLT. I WAS IN THE R SEAT OF AN SMA AND MY STUDENT WAS FLYING UNDER THE HOOD. AS WE WERE APCHING THE JEFFCO TFC PATTERN AT APPROX 7500-7300 FT, I NOTICED ANOTHER ACFT R OF OUR ACFT AND LOWER. I DETERMINED THAT, DUE TO OUR ALT ABOVE AND OFFSET FROM THE OTHER ACFT, EVASIVE ACTION WAS NOT NECESSARY. WE WERE OVERTAKING THE ACFT AT A HIGH PACE. SO OUR PRESENT COURSE WAS THE FASTEST WAY TO AVOID. AFTER I RPTED IN TO BJC TWR FOR LNDG, ANOTHER ACFT ASKED TWR IF NX WAS ON FREQ. TWR REPLIED AFFIRMATIVE, AND THE ACFT RPTED A NEAR MISS. ON MON, X, MR Y CALLED FROM THE FAA TO INQUIRE ON THIS RPT. HE SAID THAT THE PLT RPTED A 30 FT NEAR MISS. IF THIS IS AN ACCURATE STATEMENT, THEN I DID NOT EVER SEE THE ACFT AND THEREFORE COULD NOT TAKE EVASIVE ACTION. IT IS POSSIBLE THAT THIS OTHER ACFT DID HAVE A NEAR MISS WITH ANOTHER LIGHT TWIN AND SINCE HE HEARD MY NUMBERS ON THE TWR FREQ ASSUMED IT WAS ME. I DO NOT KNOW WHAT SOLUTIONS I CAN OFFER FOR THIS SITUATION BECAUSE I'M NOT CERTAIN THAT IT WAS MY ACFT THAT WAS INVOLVED.
