Delta/SkyWest Pilot Apologizes for "Aggressive Maneuver" After Near-Collision with Military Jet

Sorry for the aggressive maneuver, a Delta/SkyWest pilot told passengers after their flight reportedly experienced a near-collision with a military aircraft on July 18. A passenger captured the pilot's announcement, which detailed the unexpected encounter. According to the pilot, the incident occurred because air traffic control, which operates visually without radar at that location, did not alert them to the presence of the military plane. I think he realized that the spacing wasn't going to work, the pilot explained, describing how he had to make a sharp turn to avoid the other aircraft. He described the military plane as moving a lot faster than us. The SkyWest flight, which originated from Minnesota, landed safely in Minot, North Dakota, despite the alarming incident. SkyWest has confirmed it is investigating the near-miss to determine the full circumstances surrounding the event. Passengers were reportedly surprised by the sudden maneuver, with the pilot acknowledging, It caught me by surprise. This is not normal at all.
