Narrative:
I was traveling from ryy to gso on an IFR flight plan. On the segment concerning this report, I was direct genod, V20, direct jotta, direct gso, and in contact with ZTL on 125.15. On or about 2 mi east of jotta, level at 7000 ft, direct gso, a cessna appeared at my 12 O'clock position in very close proximity. It is estimated that the cessna flew directly over my aircraft by 300 ft and on a westerly heading. No evasive action was taken as the traffic appeared and disappeared in a very short time. The cessna appeared to be in level flight. I immediately advised center of the encounter and they stated something like, 'C182, I don't show any traffic in your area...oh, there he is...now he is gone.' center then came back and requested a description of the plane which I provided as described above.
