An investigation into last September’s mid-air collision between two Air Force A-10 ground attack planes during training in Nevada has found that one of the pilots accidentally flew into space designated for the other pilot.
A pilot flying the first A-10 climbed to the same altitude as a second A 10, which was being flown by an instructor pilot who could not see the first plane coming, according to a release from Air Combat Command.
