美國航空公司旗下「美鷹航空」(American Eagle)一架客機1日降落機場後,機艙突然冒出煙霧。畫面顯示,多名驚慌乘客爬上機翼,再從機翼往下跳至地面逃生。
American Eagle flight 5406, operated by PSA Airlines departed Charlotte Douglas International Airport on Tuesday. Shortly after landing at Augusta Regional Airport in Georgia at about 9:50 a.m. the plane was evacuated after reports of smoke in the cabin. American Airlines said the plane experienced a "maintenance issue after landing safely in Augusta. All passengers deplaned and were escorted to the airport terminal." The aircraft was a Bombardier CRJ900, according to the FAA.
abc7NY等報導,美鷹航空編號5406班機1日上午從夏洛特道格拉斯國際機場(Charlotte Douglas International Airport)起飛,比預定時間提早30分鐘降落在喬治亞州奧古斯塔機場(Augusta Regional Airport)。沒想到才降落沒多久,客機位置還在跑道上時,機艙內部突然冒出煙霧,機上人員緊急撤離。
乘客歐康納(Sean O'Conor)透露,當時在飛機上有聞到異味,衆人撤離機艙,爬上飛機機翼上,接着在機翼末端跳至地面,遠離飛機。
美國航空對此表示,這架飛機在安全降落之後出現維護問題,所有乘客事後均下機並被護送至航廈。整起事件並未造成人員受傷,美國聯邦航空總署(FAA)已針對這起事故展開調查。
