An Entire Year Passed -- No Final Report
...it's been a whole year since this Southwest Airlines Boeing 737 mishap -- yet the NTSB has yet to issue a formal report.
How long should it take to formally analyze & report on this type of airline mishap ?
Instead of a substantive report, U.S. National Transportation Safety Board Chairman Mark V. Rosenker is now merely "urging" airlines to voluntarily adopt changes in the way they calculate stopping distances on contaminated runways, in accordance with Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) guidance ...
issued in response to a much earlier NTSB recommendation from this Chicago mishap.
The primary facts of this mishap have been known for a long time -- what has caused the reporting delay ??
