The Mark 1 Eyeball is supposed to be used in the circuit to find out how not
to have an unexpected meeting. Surely that would identify those sharing your
final - it would need to be within 15-20 seconds of yours to cause a
possible clash in landing run. You both should have seen each other already.

It would be nice to think the two aircraft had identified each other at the
latest 3 minutes before landing!

 

Sometimes radios don't work. Sometimes there is half a dozen people landing
at once. Sometimes there is emergency. To rely on situational awareness and
radios is not very safe.
