A close call between a Delta Air Lines Airbus A319 taking off from Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport and a US Air Force T-38 jet, often used by the military for training, sounded alarms in the cockpit of the passenger plane Friday.

A Delta Air Lines flight had a reported close call Friday with a U.S. Air Force jet near Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport. CNN first reported the close call between the Airbus A319 that was departing Reagan and an Air Force T-38 jet, which is often used for training.

The Delta aircraft received an “onboard alert” that another aircraft was nearby, and air traffic controllers issued corrective instructions to both aircraft, according to the FAA.

A U.S. passenger flight preparing to leave the nation's capital and an incoming military jet received instructions to divert and prevent a possible collision, officials said.
