(1)Panel concludes multiple errors caused near-miss of JAL plane
TOKYO, Japan - Land, Infrastructure and Transport Minister Chikage Ogi (L) receives a final report on the near-miss incident between two Japan Airlines (JAL) passenger planes in January 2001 from Junzo Sato, chairman of the Aircraft and Railway Accidents Investigation Commission on June 12. The report concluded that air traffic control's error in giving the wrong flight numbers when asking the pilots to change course and the pilots' decision to follow air traffic control instead of the computerized Traffic Alert and Collision Avoidance System (TCAS) were two of the main causes.
