Narrative:
A loss of separation occurred between aircraft 2, a Cirrus SF-50, registration N66HR, and aircraft 1, a Boeing 737-800, registration EI-EKR, which required an evasive maneuver.
Aircraft 2 had taken off from Mallorca/Son Bonet airport (LESB), at 10:30 UTC, bound for Ibiza airport (LEIB), to make a private flight.
Aircraft 1 had taken off from runway 24R of Palma de Mallorca Airport (LEPA), at 10:31 UTC as flight FR3442, bound for Manchester Airport (EGCC).
Aircraft 2, after taking off, headed south from the Mallorca/Son Bonet airport (LESB), passing through the extension of runway 24R of the Palma de Mallorca airport (LEPA). Aircraft 1, already in the climb, required a right turn to avoid converging with the path of Aircraft 2. Both aircraft continued with their respective flights without additional incidents.
There were no injuries. No damage occurred.
