Southwest Airlines on Monday grounded the two pilots who landed a passenger jet at the wrong Missouri airport, NBC News reported. The pilots were put on paid leave until a federal investigation into the incident is completed. It marks the second in ttwo months in which a plane arrived at the wrong destination. 

The "Boeing 737-700, carrying 124 passengers and five crew from Midway Airport in Chicago, was scheduled to touch down at Branson Airport on Sunday. Instead, it made a surprise landing at M. Graham Clark Downtown Airport, which is primarily used by corporate, charter and personal aircraft," NBC News also reported.

"The flight came to a very abrupt end, almost like a crash. It just dropped to the ground and all of our bodies were accelerating forward very fast. You're holding on to the seat in front of you, not knowing what was happening," Diane Coplan told KXAS, an NBC affiliate.

The pilot announced on the public address system that they had landed at the wrong airport just five minutes later.

A Boeing air freighter in November landed at a small airport in Wichita, eight miles from its intended destination at McConnell Air Force Base, NBC News also reported..
