After giving the specifics of the physical position, the flight attendant can be heard asking passengers to "remain in that position until the aircraft comes to a complete stop, and you are told to evacuate." No injuries were reported on the flight and the reason for the emergency landing at Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport was blamed on mechanical issues, KNXV-TV reports.
The flight attendant on the plane can be heard telling the passengers, “you will need to be seated in a brace position for landing.”
Among the passengers was Steve Ramsthel, who told KNXV that he could smell smoke on the plane at one point before the emergency landing. Mesa Airlines is the regional operator for domestic American Airlines flights.
