Newark Runway Near-Miss: Planes Skim Past Each Other by 300 Feet

A near-collision occurred at Newark Liberty International Airport when an Alaska Airlines 737 on approach to a crossing runway aborted its landing after a FedEx 777 had already been cleared for final approach on the intersecting runway. The Alaska crew executed a go-around, narrowly avoiding a collision by about 300–325 feet. FAA and NTSB investigations are underway; FedEx landed safely. The incident is the second major runway scare at Newark in two weeks, following a separate tail-clipping incident involving a Spirit Airlines jet and a Singapore Airlines flight.
