Journalists would be less likely to get over-excited about these things if over-excited 'aviation enthusiasts' with scanners didn't constantly phone up with breathless accounts of mysterious collisions at busy airports. That is exactly what happened with the Air Malta at GLA the other week and exactly what happened here. These people don't help the aviation industry and they make it more difficult for airport press officers to communicate the actual facts.
