San Francisco Airport miraculously escapes plane crash

At the San Francisco airport, a collision of two planes narrowly escaped.

As follows from the data presented by the New York Post, on the eve of the day a passenger airliner of Aeromexico almost collided with a passenger plane of Virgin America. It is reported that the commander of the passenger Boeing 737, owned by the Mexican airline "Aeromexico", preparing to land, mistakenly chose the runway, which at that moment was the plane of the American air carrier "Virgin America".

Thanks to the vigilance of air traffic controllers, the crew of the Mexican airline was given the command to immediately gain altitude, while, it is reported that only a few seconds remained until the plane touched the landing strip.

As a result of the incident, no one was injured, however, Aeromexico passengers report that panic began on board the aircraft, as instead of continuing to descend, the aircraft began to quickly gain altitude.

On the fact of the incident, the US Federal Aviation Administration has already begun an investigation, and it is possible that the air traffic controller, who confirmed the landing of the Mexican plane on the already occupied runway, may be the culprit.
