Near miss investigation report
The report states that there was just 1000ft to avoid a collision.
Wouldn't TCAS have alerted this potential collision and allowed 3.3NM (TA region) or 2.1NM (RA region)? https://www.euroweeklynews.com/2019/.../#.XGXpreRKjcc Full report: https://www.fomento.gob.es/recursos_..._004_a_eng.pdf |

While there was another aircraft in the area at the time, the report does not state any loss of separation.

The official report says the controller told the Ryanair flight to stop descent due to a potential loss of separation with an Easyjet aircraft. That's all. There's no suggestion that "the Ryanair aircraft was just 1,000 feet from colliding with an easyJet plane" – that's just the usual silly journalistic over-excitement. The reason this was investigated at all is the injury sustained by a passenger.
AvHerald's account doesn't mention Easyjet at all: Accident: Ryanair B738 near Fuerteventura on Feb 10th 2018, passenger injured by stopped descent |

I must admit that Euro Weekly can be a little SUNish, so thanks for the more realistic comments.

Is it just me and my bad mood or is there something missing on this report?Is it ok for ATC to set up a situation like this, and to not even being mention on the report as contributing factor? Surely this cannot be regarded as good ATC practice.The pilots are to blame for some erratic manual flight, but realistically, given the circumstances, would the average pilot do much better? So lesson learned: next time keep the AP ON...Shure, and then what? Just be there and watch the altitude bust and probably TACAS TA/RA? Well, maybe a reply to ATC: “unable to maintain FL360”, would at least bring the ATC SOP`s to the investigation game!And by the way, the expression “Near Miss” most probably would be discarded by some ATC areas of the world; rather use “AIRPROX”.
