This is the heartstopping moment a UTAir Boeing 767-300 coming from Moscow to Barcelona was forced to abandon landing after another plane suddenly appeared on the runway.

The quick thinking pilot averted a possible head-on crash that could have killed hundreds of passengers back in 2014 . The UTAir Boeing 767-300 plane landed safely fifteen minutes later.





The Aerolineas Argentinas Airbus A340-300 that invaded the runway was taxiing for departure from Barcelona to Buenos Aires in Argentina .

The airport operator and ATC service provider said that the UTAir Boeing 767-300 ,which was less than 20 seconds from touch down, should have continued the landing without any danger that the separation was sufficient.





They later apologized for the error that led to the runway incursion stating that a clearance to cross after the landing aircraft had been issued landing clearance had been transmitted.

Spain's Civil Aviation Accident and Incident Investigation Commission, CIAIAC, also released their reports and concluded that the UTAir Boeing 767-300 crew acted properly even though some distance remained between the two Aircrafts.

A Chinese pilot was rewarded with £335,000 (approx. ₦155million Naira) for saving the lives of 439 people when a similar terrifying incident happened in 2016.

The pilot ,which encountered another plane on its path moments before taking off from Shanghai Hongqiao International Airport, chose to accelerate and flew over the other aircraft .

What do you think?

Na God save us that day

Village people

Good one by the pilot.Avoid stories that touches the heart like the Tennefe Airport disaster in Spain.

Buhari sef

I blame the approach plane...he should have notified the Control Tower of the movement of another aircraft towards A1.

This is how Nigerians would avoid ballot marked APC next year

Something that happened in 2014.

which kaain rough play na

Mods....

The ATC needs to be fired and jailed, the taxiing plane either wasnt asked to hold short, or was taxiing on the wrong taxiway.

Anyway all flights have a go-around for eventualities such as this. but still, that was close.

Wow

GOD dey!

When you inside the plane and realized you just escaped death when you reach home you gonna yarn to your Gs like 'if you see as the pilot dy fly the plane eeh if no be GOD eeh

I'm still waiting for the day I will see an aeroplane reversing

I think a plane can reverse. Keke napep too can reverse as well

Nothing heart stopping because on approach before the aircrafts rings minimums all pilots are prepared to power up for a "go around" just in case any condition on the ground threaten to impede a smooth touchdown in anyway , even below minimums pilots are still alert for a "touch and go" .. I am sure the air traffic controller will be reprimanded for not keeping tabs on all aircraft in the approach and depart queue

Wow

I am yet to see a plane, I really want to see....I'm not doubting the possibility, just that I have not seen!
