This woman should find another line of work
I absolutely don't agree; she did not turn up at work to do a bad job.
She wouldn't be there in the first place if she weren't a first class controller anyway.
But I agree that she did mess up big time!
So I would like to repeat my post of 5 days ago on this thread:
Perhaps she was having a bad day, perhaps it was the end of a long day.. (we have all been there, done that..)
But!
Safety should not be depending on a single person. Where was the supervisor?
There should be more then one layer of cheese.. This looks to me like a fault in the system; going to be an interesting investigation and a very interesting read HF wise...
A lot to learn here (again), pilots and controllers alike..
There would be a lot more smoking holes if we were in the cockpit alone..
Where was her backup?
