Synopsis
FLL approach controller observes other tracked target proceeding through his airspace and applies separation between other target and his controlled aircraft.
Narrative
Rewritten in plain English from NASA’s original all-caps telegraphic report — facts, figures, and terminology preserved.
I observed a 5000 feet target (aircraft Y) on a controller tag outbound on the runway 27R final; 15 miles east of FLL with traffic (aircraft X) inbound to runway 27R FLL.
I then took evasive action with aircraft under my control.
