NTSB 사고 브리핑…뒷바람 안고 수평비행해 바퀴 접지 늦었다

Quick Look

미국 플로리다주 마이애미 국제공항에서 아마존 화물기가 활주로를 넘어 차량과 충돌해 5명이 사망하고 2명이 중태에 빠졌으며, NTSB는 뒷바람 영향으로 착륙이 늦어져 바퀴 접지가 지연되고 EMAS 시스템 부재가 사고를 키웠다고 밝혔다.

AI-generated summary

Why It Matters

마이애미 국제공항에서 아마존 화물기가 활주로를 넘어 차량과 충돌하는 사고가 발생했으며, NTSB는 브리핑을 통해 사고 원인을 조사 중이다.

NTSB 사고 브리핑…"뒷바람 안고 수평비행해 바퀴 접지 늦었다"

(워싱턴=연합뉴스) 홍정규 특파원 = 5명의 사망자를 낸 미국 아마존 화물기는 비정상적으로 뒤늦게 착지한 상태에서 이탈방지장치(EMAS)가 설치되지 않은 활주로 끝을 지나쳐 차량들을 덮친 것으로 7일(현지시간) 파악됐다.

미 국가교통안전위원회(NTSB)는 이날 브리핑에서 해당 화물기가 전날 미 플로리다주 마이애미 국제공항의 '활주로 30'을 넘어가 약 400m를 더 질주했다고 밝혔다. 그러면서 차량 여러 대와 충돌했고, 테슬라 로보택시들이 세워져 있던 구역 바로 앞에서 멈췄다.

가장 먼저 충돌한 밴은 항공사들과 청소 용역 계약을 맺은 회사 소유로, 여기에 타고 있던 7명 중 5명이 사망했고 2명은 중태다. 이후 공항 외곽 펜스를 뚫고 지나가 4차선 도로를 달리던 승용차와도 충돌했다.

우선 착륙 시점이 비정상적으로 늦었던 게 사고 원인으로 지목됐다. 기체 후방의 착륙장치가 먼저 지면에 닿도록 하는 기동 없이 수평 비행하면서 통상적인 지점을 훨씬 지나쳐 바퀴가 지면에 닿았고, 활주로를 벗어날 때도 시속 209㎞로 달렸다고 CNN은 항공기 추적 데이터를 인용해 전했다.

구름과 뇌우를 뚫고 활주로에 접근했는데, 착륙 직전 바람의 방향이 갑자기 바뀌면서 배풍(뒷바람)을 받게 된 것이 이유 중 하나로 꼽힌다. 뒤늦게 착지할 때도 좌측 후방 착륙장치가 활주로에서 튀어 오르는 모습이 소셜미디어(SNS) 영상에 나타났다고 CNN은 보도했다.

결정적으로 마이애미 공항에는 항공기의 활주로 이탈을 차단하는 시스템(EMAS)이 없었다. 콘크리트 패드가 항공기와 부딪힐 때 부서지면서 바퀴가 멈추도록 하는 제동용 베드인 EMAS가 없어 인명 사고로 이어졌다는 것이다.

아마존 화물기에는 조종사가 2명이 타고 있었으며, 이들은 사고 직후 구조됐으나 현재 상태는 정확히 알려지지 않았다.

미국에선 지난 3월에도 뉴욕 라과디아 공항에서 항공기와 소방차가 충돌해 조종사 2명이 사망한 바 있다. 지난해 1월에는 워싱턴 DC 포토맥강 인근에서 여객기와 미군 헬리콥터가 충돌해 67명이 숨졌고, 같은 해 11월에는 켄터키 루이빌에서 UPS 화물기가 추락해 15명이 숨졌다.

Trump confidant Grenell calls Germany's AfD landslide victory 'a great victory'

Richard Grenell, who served as German ambassador in the Trump administration, evaluated the landslide victory of the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) party with more than 40% of the vote in the parliamentary elections in the eastern German state of Saxony-Anhalt as a 'great victory' and 'the beginning of a new era.' Grenell claimed that government-sponsored media had collapsed and the public was ready for change, and the next day he sarcastically said that far-left 'socialists' were angry. Although the AfD failed to secure a majority of seats with 43.8% of the votes, it is attracting attention as a significant sign of the spread of the far right in Europe. Elon Musk and President Trump also indirectly welcomed the AfD's victory through social media.

Mass production with AI… Concerns over the Communist Party's theoretical guidance 'damaging the national image'

Chus, the Chinese Communist Party's theoretical journal, criticized that pseudo-historical content mass-produced with AI is spreading overseas and damaging the country's image and the right to academic discourse. A variety of fake histories are spreading, from claims of fabrication in ancient Greece to claims of the origins of the Industrial Revolution in China, and there were concerns that generative AI would become a megaphone for these narratives.
