ATOOC: Wind Problems at ABIA
Mar 06, 2025•10 min
Episode description
In this episode, we fly over to Austin-Bergstrom International Airport (ABIA). Heavy wind gusts caused an Elite Air Challenger 300 series aircraft to violently swerve on takeoff.
This resulted in a wing strike and the aircraft exiting the runway, coming to rest on the grass.
The tower puts a hold on all other aircraft and closes the airport.
