Go Around at San Diego

#1 Post by llondel » Mon Aug 14, 2023 7:54 pm

The Federal Aviation Administration is investigating how a Cessna business jet and a Southwest Airlines flight came dangerously close to crashing at the San Diego International Airport on Friday.

The close call happened on the runway just before noon Friday between the Cessna 560X and Southwest Airlines flight 2493, both of which were cleared for the runway by a flight controller, according to FAA.
Cessna was cleared to land and then ATC put a 737 on the end of the runway, and one of the automatic warning gadgets did its job.
