NTSB to investigate close call between Delta plane, Air Force jets

WASHINGTON (Reuters) – The National Transportation Safety Board said Monday it will investigate a close call between a Delta Air Lines flight and a group of U.S. Air Force jets near Reagan Washington National Airport Friday.

The Delta Airbus A319 received a cockpit collision warning alert that another aircraft was nearby, and controllers issued corrective instructions to both aircraft. The Delta flight had been cleared to depart as four U.S. Air Force T-38 Talons were inbound to nearby Arlington National Cemetery for a flyover.
