(From the latimes.com) Federal safety regulators are investigating the near-collision of a Southwest Airlines Boeing 737 and a small private plane that was practicing landings Monday at Bob Hope Airport in Burbank. Officials with the National Transportation Safety Board said Friday that the incident occurred about 11 a.m. as Southwest Flight 649 from Oakland, carrying 119 passengers and five crew members, was landing on Runway 8.

NTSB officials said a single-engine Cessna 172 was practicing “touch and go” techniques on nearby Runway 15 when it passed over the 737, which was on the ground by that time and headed to the terminal.

The planes, which were at the intersection of two active runways, came within 10 feet to the side and 200 feet vertically of each other, according to federal authorities. Neither plane took evasive action.
