AmericanAir close call is most dangerous situation in aviation in years and NTSB had to subpoena crew for the investigation.
American Airlines pilots were distracted by paperwork when they became disoriented and created a runway incursion. The incursion happened as a Delta flight was about to take off for the Dominican Republic.
The near miss happened just over a year ago at New York’s John F Kennedy Airport.
New details of the close call the night of January 13, 2023 are contained in National Transportation Safety Board documents. They were released Monday.
