FAA probes near collision over Chicago suburbs
Federal officials opened inquiries after two near misses last Monday, one southeast of O’Hare and one near Midway, involving a United Airlines Boeing 727 and a Beechcraft King Air owned by Scot Lad Foods, Inc., and a Cessna with a Midway DC-9. The near 500 foot horizontal closeness prompted questions about altitude readings while Scot Lad’s plane flew at 7,000 feet per controller data. The FAA noted possible altitude signal issues but found Scot Lad equipment in proper working order. The agency will determine if the distance varied and why the planes came so close. Kilton of Scot Lad said the jet was flying normally and the incident would be clarified by the ongoing investigation. The United jet carried 135 passengers en route to Milwaukee from Bal.
