Are Drones Flying Over A Major U.S. Airport?
It was an unusual call to air traffic control at Kennedy Airport.
An Alitalia pilot reported what he thought to be a drone flying in the air near JFK and near his plane.
“We saw a drone, a drone aircraft,” said pilot Sergio Blaizon. FBI officials said the unmanned aircraft came within 200 feet of the plane.
Later in the recording, air traffic controllers could be heard notifying other pilots in the air know of the sighting.
