VIDEO: Another accident? Commercial plane almost crashes and performs emergency maneuver

This Tuesday afternoon, the 25th, a Southwest Airlines plane landed at Chicago's Midway International Airport, United States , and almost collided with a private jet, but with an emergency maneuver it avoided a collision. With this event, it almost added to the count of the numerous air accidents that have occurred since the beginning of the year in the North American country.

A video of a Southwest Airlines plane descending at the airport and attempting to land at high speed was circulated on social media. However, just as the plane's wheels were approaching the runway, a private jet appeared in the plane's path.

However, before getting any closer, without the tires touching the pavement, the commercial plane, identified as a Boeing 737-800, initiated an emergency maneuver and took off again , avoiding the private jet overhead. The video of the evasion was spread on social media, and Internet users recognized the pilot's skill in avoiding a tragedy.

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) confirmed the incident and, so far, no one is known to have been affected. Through its official account, the National Transportation Safety Board of the United States announced that they have already begun investigations to clarify the situation.

“The NTSB is investigating Tuesday’s runway incursion that occurred when a Southwest Airlines Boeing 737-800 attempted a missed approach after a commercial airliner entered the same runway at Chicago Midway International Airport,” officials said.

Although the accident was avoided on this occasion, netizens continue to point the finger at the administration of President Donald Trump, due to the series of air accidents that have accumulated.
