One of the main stories way back in 2007 was the near miss between an Air Malta aircraft on final approach for runway 13 and the intruder flying into its path from the Grand Harbour side. The story created a huge debate all over the island. The Times even reported the accident with the caption “Fifty feet from disaster”.
