There has been another near-miss between two planes at Sydney Airport that has injured a Jetstar crew member.

The Jetstar and Qatar Airlines flights are believed to have nearly collided about 7am on Sunday after the aircraft were forced to brake to avoid a collision

(Edit: removed ATC comment)

Listening to the playback the tug did read back correctly, was directed to follow the Jetstar A320.

Looking at the maps the intersection/ area where this occurred seems a bit busy.

Tug reported tow bar has separated from the 777 I assume due to heavy braking.
