There was a near miss on an airport tarmac Wednesday between an American Airlines plane and a truck.
Video from Charlotte Douglas International Airport in North Carolina shows the pilot of the plane had to slam on the brakes to avoid a collision.
On air traffic control radio, the pilot can be heard telling the tower about the near miss. Thankfully no one was hurt, and the plane was able to take off after a brief pause.
A similar incident happened at New York’s Laguardia Airport last month, when an Air Canada plane crashed into a fire truck crossing the active runway.

Surveillance video of that incident showed the crash and the fire truck rolling before coming to a stop. The pilot and co-pilot aboard the aircraft were killed. Two people were inside the truck, and both survived.
A preliminary analysis shows the plane was traveling 104 mph when it collided with the truck.
In the aftermath, the controller can be heard closing the airport: LaGuardia Airport is closed at this time. No aircraft in or out.
