JohnnyRocket said that one of the incidents took place at 20000 feet above Derbyshire, and without checking a map a lot of that is CAS. Qcode, DSA is in South Yorkshire, and in any case ATC have got it really wrong if an inbound is still at FL200 at the FNY!
Not sure of the helicopter incident you are talking about, 7006. There was one where an inbound broke off the approach because, having been warned about the helicopter, he was not visual with it and was more than 1000ft above it. Heli was VFR, in contact with DSA and the inbound was on a RIS for the final approach. Only a "near miss" in the juicy speak of journo. Anything seems to qualify these days!!
