4.5 MILES HIGH WITH A 2000ft SEPARATION

  • Click-baiters or a dumb Journo would probably headline this something like ‘Are our skies becoming unsafe! Look at these two planes nearly colliding’! And probably somehow relate it back to a door blowing off a 737 🤷🏼‍♂️
    But in reality, this is nothing to be concerned about. These two aircraft, a Finnair A321 and Iberia A321 are separated by 2000ft. The regulations clearly state ‘minimum vertical separation for IFR (Instrument Flight Rules) is 1000 ft (300 m) below FL290 (29,000ft) and 2000 ft (600 m) above FL290’.
    Both jets (IB3148 and AY1672)were above 29,000ft with the ‘one on top’ being the Finnair jet at 34,000ft. So IFR is clearly being observed.
    So next time you look up and see this, it’s merely an optical illusion that they look so close.
    Nothing to see here, scroll on..,

    Great capture there. Back in the 90s Reduced Vertical Separation Minima (RVSM) was introduced and gradually adopted throughout the world. 1000ft vertical separation is now used up to FL410 so in this instance there was twice the required separation between the aircraft. As they were both flying in the same direction they would likely have been allocated levels 2000ft apart, FL320 and FL340 in this instance. Aircraft flying in the opposite direction would be allocated FL310, FL330, FL350 etc.

      Considering the size of the sky's, being those close still seems like an unnecessary risk, especially if there was a mismatch in size between aircraft (e.g. an A380 and a business jet).
      I think 4,000 ft should be the minimum

      I worked on the RVSM program for EuroControl back in the 90s, specifying some of the equipment used for establishing that the altimetry systems were up to the job, ground-based radar not being quite adequate. Fun times travelling around Europe!

      @@aw4968 1000ft separation is a tried and trusted standard that has proven perfectly safe for many years. Even RVSM has been around for nearly 30 years now. Altimeters are incredibly accurate at recording the pressure gradient. Increasing vertical separation minima would reduce the amount of usable airspace available and there's no way ATC systems could handle anything like the amount of traffic we see today.

      @@davee9506 I remember the transition period. Having to route aircraft over various monitoring waypoints to ensure compliance with the more stringent requirements. Also, the introduction of RVSM airspace was done in stages. Oceanic airspace came first as the air is generally 'smoother' over oceans. For a while there was an arbitrary line down the middle of Scotland where RVSM could be used to the west of it, non-RVSM to the east. Occasionally we would vector aircraft to the west of the line just so we could use 1000ft vertical separation rather than climbing or descending one of the aircraft. We obviously had to know that both aircraft were RVSM compliant, which was marked on the flight progress strip. It became a lot more straight forward when the whole airspace became RVSM and compliance was mandated for civil aircraft. Those extra usable flight levels came in very useful when the traffic levels began to increase.

Didn't see it live so if anyone did and know how close am I or do I need to go back to aviation ID school and study more 😂.

      Horizontal separation varies according to surveillance factors but in this case would have likely been five nautical miles. They were of course nowhere near that far apart horizontally but were separated vertically instead.
