    On this week’s episode of AvTalk, Air India and IndiGO A320neos come close enough for authorities to open an investigation. We detail the sequence of events and why this incident received any attention at all. The NTSB released two final reports this week, detailing the probable cause of two near collisions in New York and Austin. And our resident numbers expert Gavin Werbeloff is here to explain Elliott Investment Management’s new 11% stake in Southwest Airlines, what they want for their money, and the likelihood they’ll get their way.
