Recurrence the same incidence - Mid air collission

Almost nine years to the day after Gol 1907 spiralled into the Brazilian jungle, crippled by a mid-air collision, only fortuitous geometry spared a second *737-800 a similar fate over Senegal.

The parallels between the two accidents are uncanny. Both involved a 737 and an executive jet flying opposite-direction headings on a single airway at the same altitude; flights which were supposed to be separated by 1,000ft

Interesting, I was working for that first company at the time and know the pilots who were involved well, what was the recent incident?
