Angola Near Miss
Recently heared of a near miss in Angola involving a heli on final approach with fixed wing suddenly appearing underneath...no atc!! Fully loaded pants throughout by all accounts!! Any info?

Angola not near anything
Sorry to spoil your fun but it was not such a big deal.
The aerolane TCAS went off on final and cos the pilots couldn't see the helicopter in the background clutter (even though they had comms with him) they were compelled to go around.
