A Malaysian Airlines flight about to depart from Adelaide Airport in Australia aborted its takeoff procedures at the very last minute to avoid a collision with another aircraft.
Flight MH136, carrying 167 passengers on board, was already on the take-off roll when Adelaide Air Traffic Control instructed it to stop and turn around.
The New Straits Times reports that the incoming aircraft had to discontinue its landing and had veered into Flight MH136’s take-off path.
Flight MH136 eventually departed at 8.56am and arrived safely in Kuala Lumpur at 3.15pm yesterday.
