Harrison Ford dangerously close to crashing his plane

Harrison Ford was involved in a plane incident on Monday when his aircraft flew ‘dangerously close’ to a commercial passenger plane.

CNN reports that the Star Wars actor’s Aviat Husky flew directly over a Boeing 737 that was waiting on the runway at John Wayne Airport, California. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and the NTSB are currently investigating the matter and if Ford is found to have been at fault, he could have his pilot’s licence suspended.

According to the FAA, the pilot was informed of his designated runway by traffic control, but “then landed on a taxiway that runs parallel to the runway, overflying a Boeing 737 that was holding short of the runway.” Ford was then reportedly heard saying: “Was that airliner meant to be underneath me?”. The 737 American Airlines plane that Ford’s craft flew over had 110 passengers on board.

And it’s not the first time that Ford has been involved in a plane incident. As in 2015, he suffered a broken pelvis and a broken ankle, after crash-landing his private plane at a golf course.
