A Southwest Airlines Boeing 737-800, operating as Flight 2504, narrowly avoided a collision at Chicago Midway International Airport. The aircraft, arriving from Omaha, Nebraska, was on approach when a FlexJet Challenger 350 business jet unexpectedly entered the runway without clearance from air traffic control. In a dramatic moment captured on video, the Southwest pilots executed a swift go-around, pulling up sharply to avert disaster.
The crew followed safety procedures, and the flight landed without incident.
