Airport ambulance driver launching suit after 'Ryanair plane almost struck her after she was cleared to cross runway' - Independent.ie
What I don't understand is that surely keeping a lookout and maintaining awareness is an essential part of being a pilot. Should this obligation be spread to other airport staff?
What would happen if all pilots who were cleared to land and had to 'go around' sued for emotional distress? The industry would grind to a halt.
Maybe I'm just being insensitive, but I think all ATC instructions should be followed with a dose of common sense.
