A Ryanair flight that departed Palma for Manchester narrowly avoided a possible mid-air collision.

It was just 100 feet vertically from mid-air collision, according to radar tracking.
Safe vertical separation should be 1,000 feet.
The Ryanair jet was within one horizontal mile of the private aircraft
The incident happened in late May shortly after take-off.
“The crew of the flight from Palma to Manchester took immediate action upon identifying a converging light,” a spokesman for Ryanair said.
“The event remains under investigation.”
