A live streamer captured the moments a pilot rejected a landing at LAX.
For the last three years, Kevin Ray has streamed hundreds of planes taking off and landing for his nearly 800,000 YouTube subscribers.Not much can shock him. 'Whoa! Whoa! We're getting a go-around. Holy moly,' Ray said on Tuesday afternoon. Ray was at LAX Airport when he witnessed a Lufthansa Airline Boeing 747-8, which can carry up to 400 passengers and crew, attempt to land.
'It was terrible landing a real clunker but there's nothing dangerous about it because those airplanes are built to take it,' retired pilot Barry Schiff said. Captain Laura Einsetler flies similar wide-body planes in and out of LAX. 'It's possible it was a higher, faster approach into the airport, and we can't tell just how far into the runway they were touching down, so it could have been a contributing factor,' she said.
