The obvious tower mistake is one thing, but I would also question the judgement of the PIC of the second aircraft cleared... He really should have been the one to catch the controllers mistake... Granted, thats my own damn opinion and nothing else, I obviously don't know enough to make a real judgement here ![]() -Scott I have had similar happen to me. You have to assume that the tower will not make mistakes. Often these types of mistakes happen at airports that have different freq for different runways, making it harder to determine. -Robert Yeah, I know there are _WAY_ too many variables I can't possibly know, which is why I submitted that little gem with a massive disclaimer ![]() I mean hell, for all I know, my bias comes simply from the fact that the P-180 is probably my single favorite current aircraft(from a design perspective), and I'm not a particular fan of Cirrus... Purely my own fanboyish reaction. Either way, props to the crews for avoiding a serious incident... and a reminder to all of us that situational awareness means a lot more than simply what the tower is telling us in particular. -Scott |
