Just weeks prior to this incident, on August 14, an American Airlines flight nearly collided with another aircraft due to a miscommunication with an air traffic controller.
However, the eerie coincidence with the date of September 11 and the history surrounding that day, coupled with other runway incidents at Logan Airport in recent times, have caused understandable uneasiness among travelers. This is a maneuver in which the pilot and air traffic controller collaborate to prevent an unsafe condition from developing, ensuring the safety and security of everyone on board. As reported by The Boston Globe, the FAA has launched an investigation into the incident to determine why the landing had to be aborted.Īccording to an audio recording of the air traffic controller, the controller informed the pilot of United Airlines Flight 2267 that another aircraft was still on the runway, necessitating the go-around.
One of them recalled the harrowing situation, describing the quick ascent as a shocking surprise, with passengers gasping in fear as the plane's engines roared and pushed them back into their seats while the tarmac rapidly disappeared below. While the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) explained that "go-around" procedures are safe and routine, the abrupt nature of the moment startled passengers onboard United Airlines Flight 2267. As the plane prepared to land, an air traffic controller instructed the pilot to execute a "go-around" maneuver due to another aircraft occupying the runway according to Boston 25 News.
Earlier this week, a United Airlines flight destined for Logan Airport encountered a harrowing moment when passengers experienced an aborted landing.
