Pilot saw man riding lawnmower on runway
A startled pilot involved in a late-night near-miss at Dublin Airport radioed air traffic controllers to tell them he thought he saw a lawnmower on a runway, it was revealed tonight.
After the Boeing 737 carrying about 200 people from an Egyptian resort touched down, the co-pilot told colleagues in the cockpit he “noticed a lawnmower too close to the runway edge lighting”.
