A holiday jet with 234 passengers on board came within a split second of a mid-air crash with an American fighter in one of the worst near-misses in British aviation history, according to a report published yesterday. A holiday jet with 234 passengers on board came within a split second of a mid-air crash with an American fighter in one of the worst near-misses in British aviation history, according to a report published yesterday. The crew of a Britannia Airways Boeing 757 watched helplessly as the 1,800mph military plane piloted by a trainee flew virtually straight at them before disappearing down their right hand side.The captain and first officer on the airliner heard the engine of the F-15E fighter as it hurtled past and felt the buffeting from the turbulence in its wake. The incident was over so quickly that there was no time for the 757 crew to take action to avoid the other aircraft, according to the report published by the Air Accidents Investigation Branch(AAIB) of the Department of the Environment Transport and the Regions.It is thought that none of the passengers or cabin crew on board the airliner, which had just taken off from Birmingham airport on 22 November last year on its way to Paphos in Cyprus, saw the fighter as it flashed past.Analysis of data showed that the two planes must have flown within 115 metres of each other, the minimum that can be detected by radar.Investigators found that the principal cause of the near-miss was the failure of the pilot of the F-15E ­ one of two fighters on their way from the Lakenheath US air base to a low-flying exercise in Wales ­ to increase his height from 10,000 to 11,000 feet.

The trainee pilot and his instructor who was in the cockpit seat behind him, had been involved in discussions and had missed the clearance to climb from air traffic control.The first fighter had flown to the new height following the instructions, but not the second which missed two subsequent transmissions that might have led the air crew to realise they were at the wrong height. Air traffic controllers were under the impression that they were only dealing with one military aircraft ­ the one that had risen to 11,000 feet out of harm's way. However the report said that there was no evidence that confusion over aircraft numbers caused the near-miss.The document said that one of the US airmen had been vaguely aware of a "shadow" flashing rapidly down his right hand side. But it was only after learning that the Boeing crew had filed an "Airprox" report that the fighter crew realised what had happened.In an another serious incident investigated by the AAIB, a Boeing 737 with more than 100 passengers on board was forced to abort its take-off from Aberdeen airport on 27 July last year to avoid crashing into a Super Puma helicopter which was hovering near the end of the runway.Forty five passengers and six crew escaped unhurt yesterday when the undercarriage of their plane flying into Liverpool airport collapsed as it made contact with the runway.

The passengers were evacuated via inflatable emergency chutes from a flight from Palma, Majorca. It is believed the pilot of the US-built McDonald Douglas Jet had no warning of the fault which resulted in the aircraft's right wing dragging along the runway..
