FAA investigating small planes’ close call at Westchester County Airport
Two small planes reportedly almost collided at Westchester County
Airport over the weekend, prompting an investigation by the Federal
Aviation Administration, county officials said.
A pilot involved in the close call notified the county today about Sunday’s incident, a county spokeswoman said.
The pilot told authorities he had received clearance and was taking
off when he came too close to a small aircraft that was landing.
Because it involves the airport’s air traffic controllers, the FAA is looking into the matter, the county spokeswoman said.
The FAA did not immediately respond to messages seeking comment.
