WASHINGTON—The U.S. National Transportation Safety Board said on Sunday it is sending a team to investigate an October 29 close call between a Southwest Airlines jet and a medical helicopter near Cleveland International Airport in Ohio.
The NTSB said the two aircraft experienced a loss of separation - meaning they came closer to each other than the required minimum safe distance - when Southwest Flight 1333 was making its final approach on a flight from Baltimore-Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport (BWI).
