The National Transportation Safety Board released a report that shows how a plane crash almost happened at Tulsa International Airport.

It happened in June of last year.

Officials say a FedEx plane accidentally landed on the wrong runway.

Air traffic control didn't notice, and the pilot didn't recognize the runway was shorter than expected 

The NTSB report mentions pilot fatigue and a distracted controller as issues contributing to the mistake.

The two pilots on board were not hurt.
