A VivaAerobus flight arriving into New York’s JFK Airport lined up with the wrong runway while another aircraft was already positioned for departure — forcing the crew to go around at low altitude.
In this video, Captain Steeeve breaks down what went wrong, how pilots identify the correct runway in complex airport environments like JFK, how this kind of mistake can happen, and what safety layers exist to prevent something like this from turning into a serious incident.
We’ll look at the approach setup, runway alignment, cockpit workload, ATC communication, and what lessons pilots and the aviation system can take away from this event.
