Australia Probes Near Miss Collision of Two Planes on Tarmac at Sydney Airport The recent near collision between two planes on the tarmac at Sydney airport is a stark reminder of the complexities and vulnerabilities of air traffic control systems.
On Sunday, a Jetstar A320 and a Qatar Airways Boeing 777 came close to colliding while taxiing for takeoff and being towed, respectively.
