When you look at how thin the jumbo is compared to the DHL one, you can tell the DHL one is alot closer, meaning its flying alot lower. Bet they were no where near.

what is shown in that pic is not dangerous in the slightest, its mearly a camera angle portraying something much serious than it actually is. bear in mind that the DHL A300 is much much smaller than the JAL 777

The Media are to blame for most of the wrong doing around the world, oh and America.

Apparently something like 54m compared to 65m according to Sky news when I was watching it. Apparently there was a vertical distance of over 300m between them, anything under that & they would have labelled it a ' close call'

300m is the bare bare minimum, but these aircraft are further apart than what it seems.
