(WBAP/KLIF) – Federal investigators are looking into a close call at a Texas airport over the weekend.

According to the National Transportation Board, investigators are looking into a possible runway incursion involving airplanes from Dallas-based Southwest airlines and FedEx.

The FAA said the FedEx cargo airplane was trying to land at Austin-Bergstrom International Airport on Saturday morning, and had to change course after a second plane was cleared to depart from the same runway.

No one was reported hurt. Both planes ultimately made it to where they were going.
