    Passengers aboard a regional American Airlines flight were warned to ‘brace for impact’, after the jet reported an emergency onboard.

    The jet, which was operating as their regional carrier American Eagle, had been travelling from Jacksonville, Florida, to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania on Thursday.

    According to FlightRadar data, flight AA4514 called in a 7700 transponder code which is used to indicate an emergency. 

    The jet managed to touch down just before 10am, with one passenger taking to X saying: ‘Brake issues so we were braced for emergency brakes potentially worse. Spirits are high now!

    ‘Shout out Captain and crew for for having everyone prepped though, turned out to feel like a smooth landing.’

    DailyMail.com has approached American Airlines, and Philadelphia International Airport for comment. 

    It comes amid concerns over air travel safety after a number of crashes involving aircraft in recent. 

    On Monday a plane carrying 80 passengers crashed in Toronto and flipped upside down on the runway. Thankfully nobody was injured.

    The crash was the fourth major aviation accident in North America in the past three weeks. 

    A commercial jetliner and an Army helicopter collided near Reagan National Airport in Washington, D.C., on January 29, killing 67 people. 

    A medical transportation plane crashed in Philadelphia on January 31, killing six people on board and another person on the ground. 

    That was followed by a plane crash on February 6 in Alaska that killed all ten people onboard. 

    On Wednesday two people died after two planes shockingly collided in midair at Arizona’s Marana Airport.  

    The repeat crashes come after one of the worst aviation disasters in modern American history on January 29, when an American Airlines passenger jet crashed into an Army Black Hawk helicopter and killed all 67 people aboard both aircraft

    Images showed one of the planes was left as a pile of rubble and ashes after it crash-landed next to the runway, while the other aircraft landed safely.

    The NTSB, which is investigating the collision, said that the two aircraft involved were a Cessna 172S and a Lancair 360 MK II, which collided while ‘upwind of runway 12,’ one of two runways at the small regional airport. 

    Just a week before the Toronto crash, a private jet owned by Motley Crue singer Vince Neil veered off a runway at Scottsdale Airport in Arizona and crashed into another plane. 

    The pilot in that incident tragically lost their life, while the rocker’s girlfriend was hospitalized. 

    The crash was preceded by another aviation disaster when a small plane carrying 10 people vanished off flight radars off the coast of Alaska on February 7. 

    Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy claimed the FAA has systems that are still fun on floppy discs

    The aircraft was later discovered crash-landed 34 miles southeast of its intended destination of Nome, Alaska, with all 10 people aboard found dead inside. 

    Although crashes involving small aircraft are not uncommon, with over 1,000 reported in the US alone in 2023, the repeat accidents have sparked panic among the nation’s flying community.

    As the nation continues to reel from the litany of crashes, Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy has pushed for a massive upgrade of the Federal Aviation Administration.

    Duffy sounded the alarm on the antiquated FAA claiming there are systems in the network ‘that are run on floppy discs.’ 

    ‘The systems that we use are so old. I need the Congress to move faster with us. We can’t wait four years, six years, 10 years. We have to do it right now,’ Duffy told CBS News.

    Donald Trump‘s Administration has set its sights on replacing the nation’s entire air traffic control system following a spate of plane crashes.
