Title: Near Miss / Thank You
Post by: captkel on March 30, 2010, 09:35:58 PM: I heard this on Wednesday morning 03/18/10 around 15:45 UTC on the Miami Center Bimini Sector Feed.
It shook me up a little. Went back and got it, I edited it for content. :-o Note: The reception wasn't at it's best that day. :oops:

AAL couldn't see the small aircraft on TCAS (=no altitude reporting transponder) but ATC saw him and gave AAL vertical avoiding action (=altitude reporting transponder).
:?

Post by: VampyreGTX on April 08, 2010, 12:48:51 PM: This is the Flight in question, AAL1593, MCO to MIA with flight times, etc.:

What probably happened was the other plane had no altitude reporting, but ATC had him on their radar. They probably just gave a traffic call, unknown altitude, to the AAL flight. They knew to look in that direction and saw the plan in time to avoid the collision.
