great work yesterday by all ATC and to be fair airport fire service who were on the scene within 1 min 13 seconds of the crash call being initiated. If what intial
rumours are suggesting, then I take my hat off to the flight crew and would very much like to buy them a beer (that doesn't happen that often!!!
)
Afternoon shift was probably in the top 3 hardest shifts I've worked in my 7 and a bit years, it proved that mixed mode would be a crock of $hit, the two GMC's earned their money yesterday. Enjoyed a couple of beers when I got home.
Still cannot believe that everyone walked away from that aircraft. I don't believe in God, but whatever you believe in, thank it that we'd had plenty of rain in the past few weeks, as, if this had happened on a cold frosty day or dry summers day, that grass wouldn't have been able to absorb the incredible amount of energy and I think this would've been a whole different outcome!
I never thought I'd say this, but, thank £*($ I'm in the sim today
All the best,
YS
