Propeller aircraft and passenger aircraft approaching abnormally near Saga Airport?
In December last year, the captain reported that a privately owned propeller aircraft heading for Fukue Airport in Nagasaki Prefecture had abnormally approached a Chinese airline "Spring Autumn Airlines" passenger aircraft near Saga Airport. The committee will investigate the situation at that time in detail.
According to the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism, at around 11:20 am on December 21, last year, a privately owned Beechcraft A36 aircraft was flying approximately 18 kilometers west-southwest of Saga Airport. The captain of the propeller reported on April 25 that he had approached a passenger aircraft abnormally.
At the time, the propeller plane was leaving Yao Airport in Osaka Prefecture and heading to Fukue Airport in Goto City, Nagasaki Prefecture at the time, and the four crew members on board the propeller plane were not injured.
On the other hand, Spring Airlines reported last December that the anti-collision system had been activated at about the same time on Spring Airlines 8577 flight from Shanghai Airport to Saga Airport. The passenger was not injured.
The National Transportation Safety Commission will investigate the situation at that time in detail.
