Harrison Ford Almost Crashed His Private Aircraft Into a Commercial Plane

That's strike number two for the actor and noted vintage airplane collector.

Actor and recreational pilot Harrison Ford was involved in an aircraft accident on Tuesday while landing his private plane, the Federal Aviation Administration has confirmed to NBC News. Ford was coming in for a landing at John Wayne Airport in Orange County, California, when he accidentally aimed for a taxiway instead of the designated runway. The Star Wars actor ended up flying his plane directly over an American Airlines 737, nearly missing 110 passengers and six crew members heading to Dallas. According to the news outlet, he asked air traffic control, "Was that airliner meant to be underneath me?"

While the two airplanes did not make contact, it's nevertheless dangerous for two planes to experience such a close near-miss. Additionally, landing on a taxiway violates the FAA's runway safety rules. As NBC notes, the FAA is investigating the incident, and if Ford is found to be at fault, there is a chance his pilot's license could be suspended. Fortunately, no one was put in direct danger, and no injuries were reported. The American Airlines plane was able to take off just a few minutes later.

This isn't the first plane accident for Harrison Ford. Back in March of 2015, he had to emergency-land his World War II-era single-engine plane on a Venice, California golf course near the Santa Monica Airport after experiencing engine problems. Ford sustained a few injuries following the emergency landing, including a broken pelvis and broken ankle. The actor, along with other celebrities including Arnold Schwarzenegger and Tom Cruise, keeps several private planes at the Santa Monica Airport.
