Actor Harrison Ford has survived a potentially serious run-in with a commercial airliner at a California airport.
NBC have reported that the star of Indiana Jones and Star Wars was instructed to land his single-engine plane on a runway at John Wayne Airport in Orange County, California.
Ford mistakenly landed it on a parallel taxiway, passing over a nearby American Airlines jet in the process.
In a recording of the incident, Ford is overheard saying “was that airliner meant to be underneath me?”
The American Airlines flight safely departed for Dallas a few minutes later, but it’s believed that the Federal Aviation Authority are investigating the incident.
The actor is a qualified and experienced pilot, however he has had previous accidents while flying.
In 1999, he crash-landed a helicopter in Ventura County, California and in March 2015, the actor was injured when his plane crashed on a Los Angeles golf course.
