A video has appeared online showing a woman, who appeared to be quite thoughtless, rushing onto the tarmac at Canberra airport in an attempt to catch a plane. It is reported that she somehow bypassed airport security and made her way towards a QantasLink flight scheduled to depart for Adelaide, as stated by News.com.au.
The video of the woman walking around near the front of the large aircraft quickly gained widespread attention on the internet. Spectators were astonished as they observed her attempting to get the pilot's attention just before the pilot turned off the plane's engines.

Australian Woman Runs Onto Tarmac To Catch Flight
According to the media outlet, the Australian Federal Police arrested her at 7:30 p.m. on Wednesday. She is facing multiple charges, including two counts of property damage, one count of unauthorised entry into a security zone, and one count of possessing a small amount of cannabis.
An eyewitness named Simon Hales found the incident to be quite unusual. He described the situation on social media saying that the woman, who had obviously missed her flight, believed she could still make it. She pushed past the airport staff, ran onto the tarmac, and approached the plane. He also mentioned that the woman was literally standing right under it, near the front wheel. Fortunately, the pilot either received a warning or spotted her and turned off the engine.
Another witness, Dennis Bilic, who recorded the absurd incident, added that people were somewhat slow to react; it seemed like they didn't know how to handle the situation. He added, "We were thinking 'Is anyone gonna stop her?'"
As a result of the woman's thoughtless behaviour, all flights experienced a 10-minute delay, but operations eventually returned to their usual schedule.
