Second Near-Miss Incidents Raise Airspace Safety Concerns Over Curaçao Aviation News – Two near-collisions in recent days have raised serious concerns about flight safety in the airspace over Curaçao, after U.S. military aircraft were reported operating without active transponders. The most recent incident occurred Friday, when a JetBlue passenger flight bound for New York was forced to halt its climb shortly after departing Curaçao after a U.S. Boeing KC-46A Pegasus military refueling aircraft suddenly appeared nearby.
