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".

The Beeb story's description of the AAIB report as a "study" is odd!
(Incidentally, the story has been updated since it first went live,
with some analysis and an illustrative map.)

I took a quick look at the PPRUNE thread on this (11 posts at
present), which has a few interesting comments:

I do like the link to George Carlin's thoughts on the matter:
