Safety incidents

35502 events · last 7 days

SkyMeter detected 35,502 flight safety events across the global tracked fleet in the last 7 days, with Tokyo Haneda International Airport (RJTT) recording the most (1,269). The breakdown: 28,628 unstable approaches, 4,448 returns to field, 1,058 go-arounds, 439 stall warnings, 341 speed exceedances, and 35 rejected takeoffs. SkyMeter classifies these events from raw ADS-B trace data using deterministic detectors — go-around from altitude / vertical-speed reversals after final approach, unstable approach from gate-by-gate stability scoring against per-runway statistical envelopes, and stall / overspeed from broadcast IAS / Mach against per-type speed envelopes. Counts reflect detected events, not adjudicated incidents.

Detection is complicated — ADS-B is imperfect. Gaps, ghost signals, coverage dead zones, missing airport metadata, training patterns, parallel-runway activity, and unfamiliar aircraft types all create false positives. These are signals worth reviewing, not official incident reports.
