At the same time, a Virgin Express 737 trying to land in thick cloud was directed into the path of the BA jet. The AAIB report says the aircraft avoided collision 2,400 ft over the London airport by just 800 ft. It blames poor communications between controllers in the Heathrow tower and says there was a combined mistake. Disaster was averted when a training inspector overheard the arrivals controller announcing he had turned the Virgin aircraft into the path of the British Airways jet.
