Narrative:

Military X VFR in right traffic to runway 1 to land. Small aircraft Y VFR from south was advised to report 3 mi final, straight-in to runway 1 to land. Military X on a right base to final was cleared to land. Small aircraft Y reported on a 3 mi final was given a landing sequence as #2 to follow military X on a 1 1/2 mi final ahead of you. I did not receive a reply from small aircraft Y to my sequence and I immediately went back and questioned small aircraft Y if he received my sequence? Military X then reported a near miss with an small aircraft he believed. I advised military X of the position of the reporting small aircraft Y but military X replied, 'he wasn't there when we saw him.' military X continued inbound and landed, taxied to the terminal ramp and came to the tower, I discussed the occurrence with the flight crew pilot. Small aircraft Y had requested to make a 360 degree turn on his own, proceeded inbound and landed, taxied to his hangar location. Military X filed a 8020-21 on jun/xx/93, with leesburg FSS that indicates a right turn evasive action was taken. No action filed by military X pilot. At the time of this occurrence, the tower was very busy involving a parachute jump operation and several VFR overflt aircraft in and near the vicinity of the parachute aircraft. The tower was attempting to clear the jump area 7.5 mi west of the airport prior to 'jumpers away.' perhaps more 'pro-active ' control and more 'positive' position reporting of all aircraft will help in preventing a recurrence.

Title: MIL X HAD NMAC WITH SMA Y IN ATA. SEE AND AVOID CONCEPT. EVASIVE ACTION TAKEN.

Narrative: MIL X VFR IN R TFC TO RWY 1 TO LAND. SMA Y VFR FROM S WAS ADVISED TO RPT 3 MI FINAL, STRAIGHT-IN TO RWY 1 TO LAND. MIL X ON A R BASE TO FINAL WAS CLRED TO LAND. SMA Y RPTED ON A 3 MI FINAL WAS GIVEN A LNDG SEQUENCE AS #2 TO FOLLOW MIL X ON A 1 1/2 MI FINAL AHEAD OF YOU. I DID NOT RECEIVE A REPLY FROM SMA Y TO MY SEQUENCE AND I IMMEDIATELY WENT BACK AND QUESTIONED SMA Y IF HE RECEIVED MY SEQUENCE? MIL X THEN RPTED A NEAR MISS WITH AN SMA HE BELIEVED. I ADVISED MIL X OF THE POS OF THE RPTING SMA Y BUT MIL X REPLIED, 'HE WASN'T THERE WHEN WE SAW HIM.' MIL X CONTINUED INBOUND AND LANDED, TAXIED TO THE TERMINAL RAMP AND CAME TO THE TWR, I DISCUSSED THE OCCURRENCE WITH THE FLC PLT. SMA Y HAD REQUESTED TO MAKE A 360 DEG TURN ON HIS OWN, PROCEEDED INBOUND AND LANDED, TAXIED TO HIS HANGAR LOCATION. MIL X FILED A 8020-21 ON JUN/XX/93, WITH LEESBURG FSS THAT INDICATES A R TURN EVASIVE ACTION WAS TAKEN. NO ACTION FILED BY MIL X PLT. AT THE TIME OF THIS OCCURRENCE, THE TWR WAS VERY BUSY INVOLVING A PARACHUTE JUMP OP AND SEVERAL VFR OVERFLT ACFT IN AND NEAR THE VICINITY OF THE PARACHUTE ACFT. THE TWR WAS ATTEMPTING TO CLR THE JUMP AREA 7.5 MI W OF THE ARPT PRIOR TO 'JUMPERS AWAY.' PERHAPS MORE 'PRO-ACTIVE ' CTL AND MORE 'POSITIVE' POS RPTING OF ALL ACFT WILL HELP IN PREVENTING A RECURRENCE.
