2 flights about to collide on Benguluru skies

In what was a mid-air scare and could have lead to a possible collision, two IndiGo aircraft came within 200 feet of one another while flying over Bengaluru’s airspace on July 10 but a collision was avoided after a timely warning from the Traffic Collision Avoidance System (TCAS), reports The NewsMinute.

IndiGo in a press statement said, "The TCAS-Resolution Advisory system was triggered on two of our aircraft operating Coimbatore-Hyderabad and Bangalore-Cochin routes respectively on July 10, 2018. Following normal procedure, this has been reported to the regulator."
