The Federal Aviation Administration says it’s investigating an incident wherein a industrial flight aborted a touchdown as one other aircraft apparently was taking off from the runway the primary aircraft supposed to make use of this week in upstate New York.

The speedy aftermath of Monday’s incident at New York’s Syracuse Hancock Worldwide Airport was captured on North Syracuse police dashboard digital camera video. The video exhibits the 2 airplanes showing to go shut to one another within the sky; it’s not clear how shut the planes have been.

The incident occurred round 11:50 a.m. when “an air site visitors controller instructed PSA Airways 5511 to go round at Syracuse Hancock Worldwide Airport to maintain it separated from an plane that was departing on the identical runway,” a FAA spokesperson mentioned in a launch.

Preliminary knowledge from FlightRadar24 exhibits that the PSA flight, which was coming from Washington, and Endeavor Air 5421, which was heading to New York, have been as shut as 625 toes from one another vertically as their programs started to converge.

Up to now, the FAA has not categorized the incident as a close to collision.
