Audio from air traffic control has revealed two planes had a near miss as they approached New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport on Monday (20 April).
Republic Airways Flight 4464 “performed a go-around” and strayed from its “intended approach path,” the Federal Aviation Administration said.
The plane changed direction into Jazz Aviation Flight 554’s route as it was preparing to land, flying within 350 feet of the other jet, according to Flightradar24.
Audio provided by Liveatc.net shows the communication the pilots of the two planes received from the tower to avoid the close call.
The U.S. Federal Aviation Administration said on Tuesday (April 21) it was investigating the near miss.
