A wild video captured sparks flying as the tail of a Kalitta Air plane scraped the runway at a Kentucky airport on Sunday.
The tail of Kalitta Air Flight 264 scraped the runway while doing a go-around after attempting to land at Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport, according to the Federal Aviation Administration.
The Boeing 777-300 ER, which departed from Brussels Airport in Belgium, landed safely after the harrowing go-around around 8:15 p.m. local time, the FAA said in a statement to The Post.
Wild video obtained by Fox19 captured an onlooker yelling, “woah, woah, woah, woah golly,” while sparks flew from the back of the plane as it skidded on the runway before lifting back off into the air.
Kalitta Air’s Chief Operating Officer Heath Nicholl told the outlet that there were no injuries to the crew and that the aircraft was removed for an inspection and evaluation upon landing.
Kalitta Air did not immediately respond to The Post’s request for comment.
The FAA will investigate the incident.
