Philadelphia Phillies Charter Plane Has a Close Call at KPHL.
It wasn't bad enough that they lost the championship series, but tragedy almost struck when the club's Delta-Owned 747 was guided in by traffic control onto a runway that had an outgoing plane on it! (abclocal.go.com) Más...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
You can see the go-around and final landing in their flight's tracklog if you zoom in around KPHL: [http://flightaware.com/live/flight/DAL8891/history/20101022/0430Z/KSFO/KPHL]
I listened to the LiveATC feed...the media is playing alot more drama in this that really happened. It sounds like an AA MD80 had taxi'd beyond where it was cleared. The DL 747 was given a go-around. It happens all the time.
WOW is the perfect comment, but one of the pilots beat me to that word....
Stuff like this happens all of the time, especially at night. A go-around is hardly news.
OMG an airliner done a go-around! The government needs to waste millions of dollars and investigate why an airliner had to do a go-around. Give me a break it's the news media once again creating news IMHO.
I do believe it had more to do in my area with the entire local ballteam on the plan more than anything.
