A British Airways flight from Dusseldorf nearly crashed during its final approach to Heathrow, triggering two stall warnings and forcing a mayday call—the highest emergency alert. Investigators believe a data system failure initially caused the first warning, forcing pilots into a less automated flight mode, which then triggered a second warning just 3,000 feet above the ground. The UK’s AAIB is now reviewing the case as a serious incident, while British Airways cooperates without releasing details. Aviation experts note that mayday calls aren’t always mechanical failures—they can stem from medical emergencies—but this event, occurring on a routine route, is unusual and demands a full investigation to prevent future risks.
