Transportation Safety Board is launching a formal investigation.
“The aircraft and the vehicle were very close, abnormally close,” said Ewan Tasker, a regional senior investigator with the board. “We see a lot of runway incursions where perhaps they were several thousand feet apart or one was further down the runway.“This one, you have an aircraft that is possibly as close 50 feet (about 15 metres), maybe even a little closer,” Tasker told the Star Friday. “It’s quite serious.”
