A Japan Airlines (JL/JAL) Airbus A350 has been involved in a serious accident at Tokyo Haneda Airport on the evening of Tuesday, January 02, 2024. The aircraft collided with a De Havilland Canada DHC-8-315Q operated by the Japan Coast Guard on the runway at 17:47 local time. 

A significant fire subsequently took hold, with video footage of the firefighting efforts being shared widely around online and traditional media channels. 

The accident marks the first hull loss of an Airbus A350 aircraft.

Does a plane have a horn? Let's find out.

The use of horns in the air is not practical due to the vast distances and three-dimensional airspace involved in aviation. However, an aircraft still has a 'make some noise' button, at least something similar to traditional horns.

Airbus, it is your turn.
