Rejected takeoff and go-around because of a drone
« on: May 11, 2016, 12:24:41 PM »
On 2016-05-06, after 08:41Z, a drone sighting on the final of RWY 12 on Prague Airport (LKPR/PRG) caused the TWR controller to abort the takeoff of TVS1200 (B738) and order a go-around for landing LZB301 (E190). Four other aircraft (CSA961, CSA505, and DHL6HX, BEL2WB) were put into holds for about 10 minutes until the situation was resolved.

Attached TWR communication with the rejected takeoff and the go-around, and (edited) APP with holding (and a bit impatient) BEL2WB.

As requested, a translation of the message in Czech at the end of the TWR recording:

[after TVS1200: Vacate via Papa, Sky Travel 1200]
TWR: 1200, just for information, a drone was reported on final of runway 12, so I had to give a go-around to the aircraft behind you and it would be too close, so vacate to Papa.
