This video shows a wheel falling off a British Airways flight just after it took off from a Las Vegas airport.Flight BA274 had just taken off from Harry Reid International Airport en route to the UK at around 8:45 p.m. Monday when sparks could be seen flying out of the right landing gear. As the plane started to ascend, it retracted its landing gear — just for one of the wheels to fall off and onto the runway.
Despite the scare, the flight continued and “landed safely” at London Heathrow Airport nine hours later. The wheel was later recovered from the airport’s airfield.
The original report did not indicate by whom - or why - the takeoff was being filmed...
