A Southwest Airlines flight aborted landing at Chicago Midway Airport to avoid a private jet on the runway. The FAA and NTSB are investigating the close call, which comes amid a series of recent aviation safety incidents. The Southwest flight from Omaha had to climb again after air traffic control detected the unauthorized jet. Passengers praised the pilot’s calm response. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy warned pilots must follow ATC instructions or face losing their licenses. The near-miss is part of broader concerns over aviation safety nationwide.
