Air traffic controllers instructed Key Lime Air Flight 563 to halt before crossing a runway, averting a potential runway incursion at LAX. The jet continued taxiing past the hold bars after being warned multiple times to stop, but fortunately did not cross the runway edge line, confirming that a serious incident was avoided. This situation was captured on a livestream as Delta Air Lines flight was preparing for takeoff.
Jon Coleman, senior vice president of Key Lime Air, emphasized the airline’s commitment to safety and pilot competency, stating, 'Key Lime Air takes pride in its pilots and training model, a regimen that demands the highest competency in the industry today. Safety of those entrusted to us is our highest priority.' He acknowledged the seriousness of the incident and the importance of learning from it as the FAA investigates.
