Harrowing footage captured the moment a Delta flight nearly crashed into the Gonzaga team plane on the runway at Los Angeles International Airport.
“Stop, stop, stop!” an air-traffic controller can be heard yelling at the plane carrying the Gonzaga University men’s basketball team as it prepares to cross a runway at LAX around 4:30 p.m. Friday, according to footage of the incident posted online.
The rolling jet comes to a sudden stop, just as Delta Flight 471 comes barreling up the runway at full speed and lifts off.
“Woo! Woo! Wow,” a plane-spotter who was filming the runway and uploaded the video to Airline Videos on YouTube could be heard exclaiming just after the near-miss.
“In the years I’ve been doing this, I’ve never heard a ATC controller tell a plane to ‘Stop, stop, stop,’” the plane spotter added as the private jet kept rolling once the runway was clear.
