Plane plunges 300ft in 36 seconds to avoid another aircraft
A US passenger plane made a dramatic plunge minutes after take-off to dodge another aircraft - injuring two cabin crew and causing passengers to shoot out of their seats. The Southwest flight had just taken off from Burbank in California when the pilot received an alert about a nearby plane. Data from FlightAware shows the aircraft dropped by 91m (300ft) in just 36 seconds.
