A United Airlines Boeing 737 coming into Newark had a frightening close call when it nearly collided with a Piper Cherokee flying under visual flight rules. The 737’s TCAS (Traffic Collision Avoidance System) issued an urgent climb command, and the crew reacted immediately — preventing a possible mid-air collision.

In this video, Captain Steeeve breaks down what happened step by step: the ATC clearances, how the Piper came into conflict with the United flight, what the radar and flight data really show, and why TCAS alerts are so critical when seconds matter. He also explains the rules of separation, how general aviation and commercial flights share airspace around busy airports like Newark, and what lessons pilots can take away from this incident.

👉 Don’t miss this deep dive into a close call that could have ended much worse.
