The FAA is reviewing airline safety after a series of terrifying near misses involving passenger jets.
The move follows two runway incidents that could have been catastrophic and a deep dive that brought one plane alarmingly close to slamming into the ocean.
The American Airlines pilots are now complying with subpoenas from the NTSB after they initially declined three requests to be interviewed as part of the investigation.That's because both planes continued with their flight plans and the cockpit data recordings only last for two hours. The FAA says the new safety review will "examine the U.S. aerospace system's structure, culture, and processes."
