When two aircraft converge at the same altitude, which has the right of way?

When two aircraft converge at about the same altitude, the aircraft on the right has the right of way. This gives a clear, predictable decision for both pilots, so the other aircraft must yield by adjusting course, speed, or altitude to avoid a collision. Speed or loudness of radios don’t determine priority; it’s simply the relative position that decides who goes first.
