Boeing 767 Cargo Runway Overrun in Miami — Lessons in Landing Performance and Runway Excursions
On September 6, 2026, a Boeing 767-300 freighter operated by 21 Air overran the runway while landing at Miami International Airport. The aircraft traveled beyond the airport perimeter, resulting in five fatalities on the ground. The NTSB investigation remains ongoing.
Preliminary information indicates that the crew discussed excessive speed during the final approach and that a go-around was called after touchdown. These findings remain preliminary and do not establish the cause of the accident.
From a safety perspective, the event highlights the importance of stabilized approach criteria, timely go-around decisions, crew communication, and Threat and Error Management (TEM).
Falcon Academy will continue to follow the investigation as additional findings become available.
