HOUSTON - Two commercial jets came dangerously close to each other Thursday night at Bush Intercontinental Airport.
A Singapore Airlines 777, a jumbo jet, flew within 200 feet vertically, and within about a half-mile horizontally of a Delta Airlines A320.
FAA rules require that aircraft remain separated by a half-mile vertically, and 3 miles horizontally.
"The pilot of the Singapore jet did not level off as required, causing a loss of required separation," Lynn Lunsford of the FAA said
The Singapore Airlines jet had just taken off. The Delta flight was on approach from Salt Lake City.
"Had they collided there would have been hundreds of deaths. It would have been a very large aviation catastrophe," Joshua Verde, a Houston-based aviation expert, told Local 2.
Verde reviewed the audio transmissions between the flight decks and Houston air traffic control.
"You can hear the stress in the (Delta) pilot's voice," Verde said.
It appears the Delta pilot was forced to take an evasive maneuver, diving several thousand feet in a minute, to steer clear of the larger jet.
The underlying cause of the close call is being investigated by the FAA.
IAH recently adopted new take-off and landing procedures, that are designed to be more efficient.

nothing more apt than "houston, we have a problem."

Big news if people really killed

 

[steffychun]

No pilot can beat the MH 370 pilots. Make whole plane disappear!

 

[Confuseous]

Seemingly, it is not a big issue.
Let's move on.

This will happen sooner than later when SIA starts to employ South Asian pilots. It will be so interesting if two SIA planes collide in mid-air over Changi Airport.

I am interested in finding out who the pilots are Are these pilots newly hired or old seasoned pilots?

Is SIA now hiring cowboys

 

[sochi2014]

Departure and arrival traffic controls and TCAS saves lives!!

Otherwise is all fated. Even in a billionth of a one chance can also happens.

Singapore Airlines plane had near miss over Houston Airport
Published on Jul 6, 2014 2:49 PM




A Singapore Airlines plane had a near miss with another aircraft while leaving Houston on Thursday night, reports said.

According to NBC News, a Singapore Airlines flight took off shortly before 7 pm on Thursday from Houston's George Bush Intercontinental and the pilot did not level off when he reached 4,000 feet as required.

This resulted in the outbound plane being less than 2,000 feet (610 metres) away from a Delta Air Lines flight which was preparing to head into Houston for landing. The incident happened about 10 miles (16 km) north-east of the airport, the report said.

"The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is investigating a loss of required separation that occurred Thursday evening between two jetliners while in airspace controlled by the Houston Terminal Radar Approach Control," the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) said in a statement.

"An air traffic controller noticed the deviation and issued traffic alerts and instructions to the pilots of both aircraft."

The FAA said it did not yet know exactly how close the two planes came.

"The FAA has taken steps to ensure that all flight crews are aware of the top altitudes for standard departure routes."
