In what could have been a major disaster, two aircraft were spotted simultaneously on the same runway at Mumbai airport. An IndiGo A320 was landing while an Air India A320 was taking off on the tarmac. The video went viral on social media and showed that the IndiGo aircraft had already landed on runway 27 as the Air India aircraft was in motion, preparing for take-off.
The DGCA has taken cognisance of the matter and ordered a probe and stern action against the Air Traffic Controller for the incident.
