UTair Aviation 767-300 NEAR MISS? GO AROUND at Barcelona-El Prat

[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1N5THRSp4hM?rel=0]
Yesterday, early in the morning...What you see is what happened.


An UTair Boeing 767-300 (VQ-BSX) incoming from Moscow as UT5187 and Aerolíneas Argentinas Airbus A340-300 (LV-FPV) were involved into what could be the bigger disaster of Barcelona Airport.

The Utair 767 was about to land on Runway 02 while the Argentinas was crossing the runway.

By the time russian pilots sights Argentinas (they were taxiing to Holding point of RW25R for take-off) on runway while they were on final approach, they do their best making an impressive and close go around.

After that incidence the plane landed safely on runway 02, and the Argentinas took-off heading Buenos Aires

Hopefully nothing happened and I can say I'm alive.

I hope you enjoy the video, Greetings from BCN,
Miguel Ángel.

After V1 from Cesar Meloni on Vimeo.

In aviation, V-speeds are standard terms used to define airspeeds important or useful to the operation of all aircraft.
V1 is the critical engine failure recognition speed or takeoff decision speed. It is the decision speed nominated by the pilot which satisfies all safety rules, and above which the takeoff will continue even if an engine fails. The speed varies among aircraft types and several factors such as aircraft weight, runway length, wing flap setting, engine thrust used and runway surface contamination.
V1 is defined differently in different jurisdictions:
The US Federal Aviation Administration defines it as: V1 means the maximum speed in the takeoff at which the pilot must take the first action (e.g., apply brakes, reduce thrust, deploy speed brakes) to stop the airplane within the accelerate-stop distance. V1 also means the minimum speed in the takeoff, following a failure of the critical engine, at which the pilot can continue the takeoff and achieve the required height above the takeoff surface within the takeoff distance.
Let´s say that this project is "an artistic definition" of what happens after V1 flying MD80 and Embraer 190 for Austral Lineas Aereas.
