Jet Blue [Go Around] in EWR on Friday, Apr 23
Neighbor was on Flight 1912 from Ft Myers to Newark yesterday (Apr 22) and experienced a crazy last 10 minutes. The flight had to reject a landing very close to the runway because an airplane was on the runway. The B6 crew rotated "more than ever been before" noted my neighbor--and then pushed back over a few seconds later. The maneuver was so abrupt that numerous passengers began a puke chain through the cabin.
Anyone have the details on what aircraft was on the ground? Was it taking off?? Was it crossing the active???
Kudos to the B6 crew for avoiding a catastrophe.

A Cessna had reported moderate chop and they were trying to avoid that.
Yes good job by the crew. I think the mayor of New York is going to hold them a tickertape parade for their heroic airmanship...I mean air-mission ship

Story: Airplane pulled out onto the runway in front of landing plane, crew almost over G’d the jet rotating, crew did a negative 2 G pushover, and passengers all almost died.
Most likely scenario: Previous landing plane didn’t quite clear the runway, crew did a go-around with the autopilot engaged, crew went around the pattern and landed normally, and the passengers got to the gate 10 min late.

Uneducated guess: previous landing aircraft didn't clear the runway in a timely manner.
EWR lands on the outside runway and departs on the inside runway in normal operations so it seems unlikely that a plane accidentally wandered onto the landing runway.
Again, uneducated guess.
Edit: took too long to post; PSU flyer beat me to it.
