A Kalitta Air aircraft struck the runway with its tail while attempting a go-around. The incident took place at an airport in Kentucky, USA.

The incident occurred on July 19 at a Kentucky airport. As the aircraft, arriving from Brussels, Belgium, initiated a go-around, it left a trail of sparks; this moment was captured on video by an eyewitness.

After circling Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport, the Boeing 777 landed safely. No injuries were reported among those on board. The aircraft has been temporarily grounded for a technical inspection.
