Post Typhoon
In total agreement with TCAS and his assessment of the situation.
With so many planes in the sky, we were very fortunate to escape with no incidents and no breakdowns in separation.
This is not the first typhoon nor will it be the last to affect Hong kong. We have not learnt from past typhoon experiences nor acted upon issues that have been raised before. When will CAD/AA and the airlines learn that the scheduling of flights during the post typhoon period needs to be controlled, centrlalized and managed in such a way that it does not pose a strain on our air traffic control system?
We survived a big scare on Saturday and only just. Nobody wants to see it happen again.
