A Bombardier Learjet 60 taking off Monday night from Boston Logan International Airport (KBOS) had what the FAA said was a “close call” with a JetBlue Embraer E190 preparing to land. The FAA is investigating the incident and noted, “This is the fifth near-collision involving an airliner on a runway this year.”

“According to a preliminary review, the pilot of the Learjet 60 took off without clearance while the EMB-190 was preparing to land on an intersecting runway,” the FAA said in a statement. The agency added that the Learjet was operated by Florida-based charter provider Hop-A-Jet. Hop-A-Jet has yet to respond to AIN’s inquiries seeking comment.
