On the night of January 9th, 2022, two Emirates Airlines Boeing 777’s nearly collided on the runway at Dubai International Airport. This was the second close call at Emirates in less than a month, with the previous incident involving another 777 at Dubai, which nearly crashed into the Dubai suburb of Deira shortly after takeoff. If early reports are correct, the reason that the January 9th incident happened is shocking - one of the aircraft, Emirates flight 524, bound for Hyderabad in India, took off without permission. How could two qualified pilots have made such a basic mistake? This episode uses publicly available sources to investigate what may have happened in Dubai on January 9th this year.
