Narrative:

Aircraft X (B190) was inbound to day, via mfd.V72.rod.day. Upon entering airspace, I descended aircraft X to 10000 ft to comply with LOA. Aircraft Y (MD80) was inbound to cmh via rod.V210.gunne.cmh. Aircraft Y was descending to 11000 ft to meet LOA. Aircraft X was on a 245 degree heading into rod, and I switched to day approach about 2 mi from their lateral boundary (approximately 25 mi northeast of rod). Aircraft Y was outbound from rod flying the airway about a 095 degree heading. I measured the distances, and the aircraft would have passed about 12 mi laterally. Upon contact with day approach, the day controller turned aircraft X south to about a 185 degree heading or 60 degree turn. Aircraft X came within 4.2 mi of the back side of aircraft Y.

Title: AFTER XFER OF CTLR FROM ZID TO DAY APCH, DAY TURNS HDOF ACFT INTO DSNDING ACR LNDG ANOTHER ARPT

Narrative: ACFT X (B190) WAS INBOUND TO DAY, VIA MFD.V72.ROD.DAY. UPON ENTERING AIRSPACE, I DSNDED ACFT X TO 10000 FT TO COMPLY WITH LOA. ACFT Y (MD80) WAS INBOUND TO CMH VIA ROD.V210.GUNNE.CMH. ACFT Y WAS DSNDING TO 11000 FT TO MEET LOA. ACFT X WAS ON A 245 DEG HDG INTO ROD, AND I SWITCHED TO DAY APCH ABOUT 2 MI FROM THEIR LATERAL BOUNDARY (APPROX 25 MI NE OF ROD). ACFT Y WAS OUTBOUND FROM ROD FLYING THE AIRWAY ABOUT A 095 DEG HDG. I MEASURED THE DISTANCES, AND THE ACFT WOULD HAVE PASSED ABOUT 12 MI LATERALLY. UPON CONTACT WITH DAY APCH, THE DAY CTLR TURNED ACFT X S TO ABOUT A 185 DEG HDG OR 60 DEG TURN. ACFT X CAME WITHIN 4.2 MI OF THE BACK SIDE OF ACFT Y.
