Passengers aboard a regional American Airlines flight were warned to ‘brace for impact’, after the jet reported an emergency onboard.
The jet, which was operating as their regional carrier American Eagle, had been travelling from Jacksonville, Florida, to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania on Thursday.
According to FlightRadar data, flight AA4514 called in a 7700 transponder code which is used to indicate an emergency.
The jet managed to touch down just before 10am, with one passenger taking to X saying: ‘Brake issues so we were braced for emergency brakes potentially worse. Spirits are high now!
‘Shout out Captain and crew for for having everyone prepped though, turned out to feel like a smooth landing.’
DailyMail.com has approached American Airlines, and Philadelphia International Airport for comment.
It comes amid concerns over air travel safety after a number of crashes involving aircraft in recent.
On Monday a plane carrying 80 passengers crashed in Toronto and flipped upside down on the runway. Thankfully nobody was injured.
The crash was the fourth major aviation accident in North America in the past three weeks.
A commercial jetliner and an Army helicopter collided near Reagan National Airport in Washington, D.C., on January 29, killing 67 people.
A medical transportation plane crashed in Philadelphia on January 31, killing six people on board and another person on the ground.
That was followed by a plane crash on February 6 in Alaska that killed all ten people onboard.
This is a breaking news story.
