United jet copilot sensed low flight but reacted late
A United Airlines passenger jet landed at Newark Liberty International Airport after striking debris from a light pole near the runway, causing damage but no injuries to over 200 aboard. The crew reported the plane was coming in low and experienced a loud jolt before touchdown, which was influenced by strong winds and a short runway. The incident occurred on May 3 after flying from Venice, Italy, and the aircraft landed safely despite significant fuselage damage. The final investigation report is expected next year.
