A British Airways flight Sunday appears to have collided with a drone on a flight bound for London Heathrow in what may be the first such incident involving a major airline. The flight was from Geneva, Switzerland to Heathrow. The plane landed safely following the incident, which occurred around 12:50 pm local time. The incident comes at a time of rising concern about drone misuse near commercial airlines. BA said its engineers inspected the Airbus A320 airliner, found no damage, and cleared the plane to continue operating. Flight safety authorities have become increasingly anxious that the use of drones is becoming a hazard for aviation. The US FAA last month said “reports of unmanned aircraft have increased dramatically since 2014.” The agency recorded more than 1,400 reports last year of drones coming close to planes. <br/>
