		</div><p>A US 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.</p>
<p>Delta Air Lines Flight 2983 was cleared for takeoff at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport on Friday around 3:15pm, the same time four US Air Force T-38 Talon aircraft were inbound, the Federal Aviation Administration said in a statement.</p>
<p>The jets were heading for a flyover of Arlington National Cemetery when the Delta aircraft received an onboard alert of a nearby aircraft.</p>
<p>Air traffic controllers “issued corrective instructions to both aircraft”, according to the FAA, which intends to investigate.</p>
<p>The Airbus A319 with 131 passengers, two pilots and three flight attendants was embarking on a regularly scheduled flight between Reagan and Minneapolis-St Paul International Airport, Delta Airlines said.</p>
<p>The flight left its gate at 2.55pm and was scheduled to arrive at Minneapolis-St Paul at 4.36pm local time before the flight crew followed the diversion instructions from the controllers, the airline said.</p>
<p>No injuries were reported.</p>
<p>The Air Force’s website describes the T-38 Talon as “a twin-engine, high-altitude, supersonic jet trainer” used by different departments and agencies, including NASA, for various roles including pilot training.</p>
