Tokyo Tower VS Thai Airlines
Plane nearly hit Tokyo TowerOct 18 TOKYO (Reuters) - A Thai charter plane veered off course while approaching a Tokyo airport last month, almost hitting the Tokyo Tower, a well-known landmark in the centre of the Japanese capital, a newspaper says.
The Orient Thai charter jumbo jet came within 200 metres of striking the tower, a 333-metre high copy of the Eiffel Tower, when it veered to the north during the final stages of its approach to Haneda airport just after midnight on September 19, the Mainichi Shimbun said on Monday.
