I think ATC has a big question to answer here. Why the hell would you vector a plane to land in the opposite direction of a departing aircraft on the same runway? At any rate, TCAS also has a big part to play in collision avoidance. It's not just up to the pilots scanning visually or manually looking at a radar screen. I wonder if the A350 got an RA or something and pulled up a bit too much in response.
EDIT
Just read it was an uncontrolled airport as i posted this, so i guess ATC is out of the picture.
- raverbashing 5y agoIt does not have TWR it doesn't mean the rest of ATC is unaware, and as the Avherald mentions they have a UNICOM. An interesting tidbit from wikipedia: "Straight-in approaches are discouraged at non-towered airports in the United States"
