A Boeing 767 from Russian airline Utair is shown coming into land on the runway.

As it approaches the ground, an Aerolineas Argentineas Airbus A340 taxis across its path.

The Utair jet pulls up and performs a 'go-around'.

The Russian plane landed safely shortly afterwards and the Argentine jet took off for Buenos Aires without further incident.
