Two Planes Almost Collide At Airport

Two planes had a near-miss on a runway in Barcelona’s El Prat airport and the incident was caught on camera. The footage shows an Utair Boeing 767-300 from Moscow aborting its landing to avoid a crash with Aerolineas Argentineas Airbus A340-300 that was preparing to take off for Buenos Aires. The Russian pilot performed a perfect emergency ‘go-around’ procedure and avoided a potential tragedy, even though airport officials claim there was never any danger of a collision as there was sufficient space to carry out a landing between the two planes.
