FAA Urges Increased Vigilance and Safety Measures After Near Miss Incidents.
TL;DR
The FAA has issued a safety alert to airlines, pilots, and others after a series of high-profile near collisions, including six serious runway incursions since January. The National Transportation Safety Board is investigating a series of serious close calls, and Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg has called for addressing the uptick in aviation close calls before the next "catastrophic event." The FAA has formed a safety review team, and operators are urged to evaluate information collected through their safety management processes, identify hazards, increase and improve safety communications with employees, and enact mitigations.
