Frontier Plane Burst Into Flames During Emergency Landing

A Frontier Airlines plane experienced a fire upon landing at Harry Reid International Airport in Las Vegas on Saturday. The incident, which was captured in a viral video, showed flames and smoke billowing from the aircraft’s landing gear after it touched down.

The plane, Frontier Airlines flight 1326, was arriving from San Diego when it encountered difficulties during landing. The pilots quickly declared an emergency after detecting smoke. Emergency responders were on the scene promptly, using foam to control the flames and prevent further damage.

Despite the dramatic scene, all passengers and crew members were safely evacuated from the aircraft using airstairs. There were no reported injuries from the incident. Frontier Airlines confirmed the safe landing of the aircraft and announced that an investigation into the cause of the fire is underway.

The airline has suggested that a “hard landing” may have played a role in the incident, but the exact factors are yet to be determined. The flight touched down at 3:37 P.M., about 30 minutes later than scheduled. The airline expressed relief that the situation did not result in any harm to those on board.

As the investigation continues, Frontier Airlines remains committed to fully understanding and addressing the incident. The safety of passengers and crew members is the airline’s top priority, and they are working diligently to ensure such incidents do not occur in the future.
