KATL · 08L

2026-07-02 16:21 UTC· KORD KATL· WELLS FARGO TRUST CO NA TRUSTEE· B739

DAL1178 (Wells Fargo Trust Co NA) was operating from KORD to KATL on 2026-07-02. SkyMeter detected a go-around at Hartsfield Jackson Atlanta International Airport (KATL) on runway 08L at 16:21 UTC. Trace data at the event: 1590 ft AGL, 174 kt GS. METAR at the time reported 3 kt wind, 3 kt crosswind component, 16,093 m visibility. A go-around is a discontinued landing approach in which the pilot adds power and climbs back to a safe altitude before re-attempting the approach or proceeding to an alternate. It is a routine safety response, not an emergency, and is taught as the standard reaction to any unstable approach. Detection algorithm and known limitations: see SkyMeter methodology.

SkyMeter cross-referenced this flight against FAA-published TFRs that were active during its window and within its geographic bounding box. Overlap doesn't necessarily mean violation — the aircraft may have been outside the TFR’s precise polygon or flying under air-traffic-control coordination.

Automated analysis. Events shown on this page (such as go-around, unstable approach, or runway events) are heuristic classifications produced by algorithms from publicly broadcast ADS-B data. They are intended to surface flights of interest for further review — they are not findings of fact, and they do not determine pilot fault, regulatory compliance, or the cause of any occurrence. Coverage gaps and sensor noise can affect accuracy. Only the relevant civil aviation authority or accident investigation body can make official determinations.
