✍️ Two passenger planes narrowly avoided colliding with construction vehicles and workers during takeoff at Melbourne airport due to flight crews being unaware of a shortened runway.
👉 Two planes narrowly avoided colliding with construction vehicles and workers during takeoff at Melbourne airport 👉 Flight crews were unaware of a shortened runway due to changes in the runway length 👉 Changes to domestic and international practices on notifying flight crews about critical safety information 👉 Flight crews did not absorb or factor critical information about the changes to the runway length into their takeoff calculations 👉 Both airlines have updated their flight dispatcher procedures and processes in response to the incident
