A business jet came close to a mid-air collision with a Turkish
Airlines passenger plane after taking off from London City Airport, a
report has said.
The Air Accidents Investigation Branch (AAIB) study described the near-
miss over London as a "serious incident".

Serious indeed, but "100ft to 200ft below and half-a-mile away" is not
"feet away" like the crappy reporting in the Standard (yes, again)
would suggest.
They did post an apology for the misleading story about the Javelin
trains, but it was small and out of the way.
