Near-Miss at JFK: Two Planes Abort Landings to Avoid Collision
A potential disaster was averted at John F. Kennedy International Airport when two commercial planes came dangerously close to colliding mid-air. The incident involved flights operated by American Airlines and Air Canada, which were forced to abort their landings after coming within 350 feet of each other. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) reported that Republic Airways Flight 4464, operating for American Airlines, deviated from its intended path, nearly intersecting with Jazz Aviation Flight 554's route. Both aircraft responded to onboard alerts, with the Republic Airways plane dropping 600 feet and the Jazz Aviation plane ascending 1,000 feet to avoid collision. The FAA is investigating the incident.
