Chaos in the Sky: The Airport Evacuated After Hearing Jet Engines Shut Down
It started with the sound of jet engines closing up. Then, chaos. The airport is evacuated after a recent incident where an airliner accidentally reversed its engines upon landing, resulting in a massive blast of noise and air sending passengers and airport staff running for cover.
Airport Authorities Explain What Happened
Authorities have released a statement explaining the incident was due to a mechanical error. It seems that the pilot accidentally hit the reverse throttle as the plane was coming to a landing, causing the turbines to spin the opposite way. According to officials, the aircraft's design makes it impossible for the turbines to spin in reverse while in flight, emphasizing the safety of the passengers and crew.
Passengers React to the Trauma
Passengers on the plane at the time of the incident have provided varied reactions to what happened. Some say they knew something was wrong when the engines suddenly shut down, while others recall the deafening sound of the reverse engines and the panic that ensued. Most people interviewed have stated that they feel grateful no one was hurt during the incident.
