Southwest Airlines plane lands at wrong Missouri airport

[brien23]

A Southwest Airlines flight from Chicago's Midway Airport was scheduled to land at Branson Airport in southwest Missouri on Sunday night. Instead, the Boeing 737-700 touched down at Taney County airport -- about 7 miles away, and with a runway significantly shorter.

Runways 3738 vs 7140. And Taney County KPLK does have an abrupt drop-off.
