Lancashire Airprox report
Airprox report says Typhoon and DCH-8 came within 400ft of each other over Lancashire on Aug 27.
The near-miss resulted in restrictions on Typhoon flights in the area.
The DCH-8 never made visual contact with the jet, flying between Belfast and Leeds.
'Poorly executed level-off' blamed for the encounter.

No, more of a wake-up call to the RAF chap by all accounts. Still, wouldn't want to have to explain myself over tea and biscuits even if it was just Cat C, especially as military ops were suspended after the incident. That would be a big slap on the wrist...
