Firefighters scrambled to douse the flames on an aircraft that aborted takeoff at New York’s John F. Kennedy Airport on Oct. 1, after the plane’s landing gear caught fire.

“Kennedy ground, you got an emergency. Emergency,” an unidentified voice can be heard, according to NBC New York, citing LiveATC.net, a repository of air traffic control interactions.
