Close Call at LAX Tarmac
The incident occurred late Wednesday night and was captured on air traffic control recordings, where the pilot's alarm was clearly audible.
This close call follows a similar runway incursion at LaGuardia Airport only weeks ago, raising concerns about ground safety protocols at major U.S. hubs.
No injuries were reported, but the aircraft was delayed as officials assessed the situation.
The FAA and airport authorities are reviewing surveillance footage to determine how the trucks were allowed to enter the active taxiway without clearance.
