[quote:Anonymous Coward 51488248:MV8yNjYxMDAzXzlDOTExMTA5] The incident, being investigated by the Foreign Office, happened as the Monarch flight carrying passengers from Manchester was making its delicate approach on to the Rock, one of the world’s trickiest landings. Last night a senior Tory MP called on Foreign Secretary Philip Hammond to send Spain’s Ambassador to Britain, Federico Trillo, “packing back to Madrid”. The Sunday Express has learned the passenger jet’s captain reported seeing the two aircraft less than half a mile away and air traffic controllers at Gibraltar International Airport noticed “two dots” on their radar just before 10.30am on September 19. http://www.express.co.uk/news/world/518873/Gibraltar-airspace-illegally-invaded-Spanish-fighter-jets [/quote]
