excludes non-commercial aviation, e.g. military, private jets, charter flights
only includes airliners; e.g. excludes helicopters, small planes

3.00BBC reporting that two planes were caught on a police dashcam in what appears to be a midair near miss.
Airliners, especially Boeing, have had some bad news lately. Luckily so far, nothing fatal. A Boeing 737 went off the runway yesterday. The day before that, a tire fell off a United Airlines flight during takeoff. A few days before that another United Airlines engine shot flames out the back midair. This all happening on the back of Boeing's January incident, when a Boeing plane door blew open.
Just realized there was a fourth incident this last week. Another United flight had a hydraulic failure.
