Federal safety investigators have opened an inquiry into a third runway close-call involving an airliner in less than a month.
The National Transportation Safety Board said Wednesday it is investigating a January 23 incident involving a United Airlines 777 jet and a smaller, single-engine cargo plane at the Honolulu airport. The United jet improperly crossed a runway at the Daniel K. Inouye International Airport while the cargo aircraft was landing, the Federal Aviation Administration said. At the closest point, the aircraft were separated by 1,170 feet. United referred questions to the NTSB.
The NTSB said in a preliminary report that the American crew did not have clearance to cross the runway, and it has issued a subpoena to compel the crew’s testimony. The second incident occurred on February 5, when a FedEx pilot narrowly averted landing in Austin, Texas, atop a departing Southwest Airlines flight cleared to use the same runway. The planes were at one point about 100 feet apart, the NTSB said.
