A JetBlue airline pilot had to take “evasive action” last Monday while landing at Boston Logan International Airport when another plane flew across a runway that crossed his path, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The incident occurred around 7 p.m. Monday when the pilot of a Learjet 60 took off without clearance as a JetBlue flight was preparing to land, according to the FAA’s preliminary review.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The FAA is investigating how close the two aircraft came to colliding, but flight data tracking service Flightradar24 said Tuesday that a preliminary analysis placed the aircraft approximately 530 feet apart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An air traffic controller ordered the Learjet pilot to line up and wait on one runway while the JetBlue flight landed on another, the FAA said in a statement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“The Learjet pilot read the instructions clearly, but instead initiated a takeoff run,” said the FAA. “The pilot of the JetBlue aircraft took evasive action and initiated a climb as the Learjet crossed the intersection.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“JetBlue Flight 206 landed safely in Boston after air traffic controllers directed our pilots to perform a go-around,” a JetBlue spokesperson said in a statement sent to NBC News.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Safety is JetBlue’s top priority and our crews are trained to react to situations like this. We will assist authorities as they investigate this incident.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Learjet was a private charter operated by Hop-A-Jet, the FAA said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

More incidents at U.S. airports<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Monday’s was the most recent incident involving commercial aircraft in recent months. There was one at New York’s John F. Kennedy Airport in January, a second in Austin, Texas, in February and another off the coast of Hawaii in December.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That prompted FAA Administrator Billy Nolen to say in early February that he was forming a team of experts to review airline safety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“We are experiencing the safest period in aviation history, but we cannot take this for granted,” said FAA Acting Administrator Billy Nolen in a memo released Feb. 14. ” Recent events remind us that we must not become complacent.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nolen said he is forming a safety review team to examine the processes and integration of U.S. aerospace system safety efforts. A summit will be held in March to explore new actions to ensure aviation safety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
