Dear MEL School’s Topic Readers,
Dramatic video shows 'near miss' at Barcelona airport
Have you ever experienced a “go around” in a landing airplane? It’s an emergency maneuver taken by the pilot most likely when there’s something ahead or on the runway, or something is wrong with the aircraft. No one wants this kind of serious danger. Fortunately, pilots are all trained to judge, respond and act to avoid an accident.
Here is a video happened to be shot the very close encounter of two jetliner in Barcelona, Spain. One was approaching the runway and the other was crossing it.
According to the statistics, there are over 40 such dangerous near miss incidents last year. Think about the aviation world in the coming years, air traffic is going to be more congested while pilots are likely to be less experienced because of the growing demand in developing countries, you may choose alternative transportation if available.
Enjoy seeing the close encounter video.
