![]() "Judah" wrote in message . .. Actually, when I listened to the edited tape on the WFAA report, my initial reaction to the inter-controller phone call was that the word "emergency" was not mentioned. Basically, controller #1 said that "American 489 is requesting 17C" and controller #2 said "Unable." But that would still be an ATC error. |

But it makes the error a communication error caused by a failure of Center to effectively communicate the Emergency to the Tower. For whatever reason, that seems to be a much more realistic training issue than an arrogant controller who refused to accomodate a plane involved in an emergency issue, which is IMHO more of an attitude issue that may not ever be corrected by training... |
