I love the newscaster’s quote "seconds from landing" yet the plane is never in view, the pilot never acknowledges seeing the target, or gets too concerned about the go around. Journalism 101, its not a news story unless someone dies or a group of people come close to death even if it requires a stretch of the truth.

Well, as soon as you take off, you are "just seconds" from landing. 3600 of them per hour :)

It is pronounced "Two-Seven Right" and its a runway... not a jetway.

Maybe he was hoping the car would takeoff :).

There was a similar incident back in the 1970s at St. Louis Lambert. Some drunk managed to get his car on the main runway (now 12R/30L - 11K ft). The police chased him from one end of the runway to the other a couple of times till they finally corner him. STL had to close during the fun and games on the runway.

Somehow, I get the feeling this will end up getting ripped on by Tanya Harding, Todd Bridges, and other C-list stars on an episode of "World's Dumbest Motorheads".

Nice job Diane Sawyer. Ramp up the hyperbole and fear factor. She should be ashamed, but she has no shame. Just lots of $money$.

Jeep on runway in Philly causes controllers to scramble

(CNN) -- A passenger jet was just seconds away from landing Thursday at Philadelphia International Airport when a Jeep broke through a chain-link fence and drove onto several runways, forcing a number of planes to circle the area, according to an air traffic controller familiar with the incident.

Laws can’t stop the insane or temporarily insane. You must be prepared to react to the unexpected at all times.

I really hope they don't crack down on traffic back there now in a knee jerk flawed logic reaction... There is some pretty decent spotting to be had back there, especially at the threshold of 9R when there is a low pressure zone coming in from the west - they use that runway to land... It's the closest to the road back there, and you are only like 1000ft from the threshold.. What a view, and the vortices cause mini tornadoes in the river right behind you... Really neat to see.

This doesn't happen every day, but it was bound to happened some day. Well, that day has come. unfortunately, there are somethings that you can not foresee or even prevent. Thank God the ATC saw it and was able to instruct the approaching a/c to abort the landing and go around.

Lets put concreat walls around airports that will keep the cars out and make sure everyone dies on an over run or maybe ARFF should have tanks and M16's. Looks like everyone did their job as they should and this was nothing but another media frenzy.
