Air Traffic Incident | Operational Error |
Narrative:
Departed lga, after switching to new york departure (120.40). We were instructed to 'turn left to 360 degrees and climb to 7000 ft.' approaching 7000 ft (between 6000-7000 ft),we received TA followed immediately by an RA which required me to adjust my rate of climb. Traffic was an air carrier Y B737 flight XXX, which appeared to be slightly higher and at our 2-3 O'clock position. At the same time, the B737 announced they were descending for an RA. This appeared to put the B737 in further conflict with our flight direction. I immediately executed a climbing left turn to add further separation between the aircraft. The B737 passed below and under our aircraft. The event lasted about 5 seconds and conditions at the time were VFR.
