How can we "fix" LEX to prevent wrong runway selection everywhere?

Cars and Guns kill more people because stupid and/or drunk and/or
unqualified or poorly trained people get a hold of them every day

Air Travel should be perfectly safe because it supposedly involves
professionally trained people who follow strict guidelines.

But when "Negligence" comes into play, there are mechanisms to insure
accountability and compensation and problem resolution so it will not
happen again.

In the case of KLEX, the FAA was "Negligent" with their Air Traffic
controller workforce staffing that Sunday morning
at Bluegrass Airport.

You can spin all day like a washing machine and throw out hypothesis after
hypothesis but the bottom line at LEX the FAA was "Negligent" because they
violated their Air Traffic staffing orders.

If found the crew was 100 percent at fault it still does not negate the
fact the FAA was negligent.


The LEX tower was not understaffed. The fact that FAA directives required
two people to perform a one-person job had nothing to do with the accident
at LEX.
