Norfolk suspends practice of emergency landings after near-miss by E-2C

The U.S. Navy has decided to suspend the practice of emergency landings at Norfolk after a E-2C nearly collided with a civilian plane in February.

The E-2 was descending from 5,000 feet for a mock emergency landing during the incident, the pilot of the other plane spotted the Hawkeye and made a left turn for separation.
