💨 Abstract

An American Airlines flight nearly collided with a mountain in Hawaii after takeoff. The pilot followed air traffic controller instructions to ascend rapidly and make a right turn, potentially averting disaster. The FAA stated that the crew failed to make the assigned turn, but American Airlines claimed there were no terrain clearance issues. The plane safely landed in Los Angeles seven hours later.
