BOSTON — A JetBlue flight performing a landing at Boston’s Logan Airport conducted a go-around due to an ‘unstable approach’ during landing, according to the FAA.
The incident occurred on Sunday, March 2, around 3:05 p.m.
According to JetBlue, the pilot decided to perform a go-around to realign the aircraft because the plane was unable to get low enough in time for a safe approach.
A spokesperson for JetBlue also added that strong winds can often play a factor in these situations.
A go-around is a safe, routine maneuver performed at the discretion of a pilot or at the request of an air traffic controller, the FAA says. It discontinues the landing approach and returns the aircraft to an altitude and configuration to safely make another approach.
The pilot and the air traffic controller were in full command of the situation.
Additional information on this incident was not available.
