The FAA is investigating a close call at Newark Liberty Airport last Monday afternoon. A helicopter pilot had to be warned by the control tower. A United Airlines passenger jet bound for Houston was attempting to take off when the incident happened. The helicopter was approaching an adjacent runway when air traffic controllers instructed it's pilot to "turn away." The FAA says a safe distance between the two aircraft was maintained at all times.
