An Alaska Airlines flight steered into the path of a SkyWest flight departing from Oregon's Portland International Airport and is under investigation, the FAA says.
An investigation is underway after an incoming Alaska Airlines flight steered into the path of a SkyWest passenger jet that was taking off from Portland International Airport last week, federal officials said. The incident happened around 4:15 p.m. on Oct.
While the FAA said it is working to determine how close the two aircraft came to each other, it defines a near midair collision as an incident that occurs when a plane comes within less than 500 feet of another aircraft, or a report is received from a pilot or crew member that a collision hazard existed between two or more aircraft.
