Marseille, France
Near Miss Event, 2016

Bild
On June 27 in 2016 at 3:45 p.m. the crew of the A319, coming from the aerodrome of Bordeaux-Aquitaine bound for the aerodrome of Marseille-Provence, performed a visual approach to runway 31R. 
The AS532 helicopter returned at the same time from a VFR control flight descending towards the aerodrome circuit entry points. As the helicopter's transponder broke down, the air traffic controller only had primary radar contact. 

A near-miss between both aircrafts occurred with a distance of 350 meters between and 73 meters vertically. 
​
The A319 crew observed the helicopter, passing by on the left wing. This key information was used by the iwi® methodology to verify and synchronize the timestamps of both FDR datasets, reconstructing the incident scenario in 3D and visualizing cockpit and external perspectives.
