    There’s no way he’s being fired. As someone who is in aviation, very rarely do incidents like this result in a single person being at fault. This is Human Factors and a direct result of being overworked and understaffed.

    He was controlling ground traffic AND air at a major airport, that is absolutely insane. Not only that, but he had to continue working for an additional 30 minutes because no one was able to relieve him of his duties.

    This goes back to the FAA and the government who want to work these guys like animals.

    Who could've ever seen this coming though?

    Yep this is definitely the ATC dude’s fault and not our federal government making his job basically impossible to do correctly

    India this year.
    That UPS one
    US refueling jet just fell out of the sky last week in the middle east
    DC collision

    several more after that.

    but yes, in relation to safe flights. minimal. but I also don't blame someone for being a little nervous lately.
