A mid-air collision between two international flights was averted at Mumbai air space following the activation of traffic collision avoidance systems (TCAS).
An official from the Airport Authority of India said the incident was a result of the closure of Pakistan’s airspace from February 27.
“After the closure of Pakistan airspace, we are facing heavy scheduled and unscheduled flight in Indian airspace. Our ATC officials are capable to handle the situation but it was unfortunate that the incident happened. On Friday, a near miss averted at Mumbai airspace,” the AAI spokesperson told ANI.
