  • To me it sounds like multiple relatively minor errors coalesced around tragedy. There is lots of data to inform changes to fine-tune a congested airspace. It also looks like the military’s culture of safety has slipped and they’ve forgotten how intricately of an operation this all is when their operations are do closely intertwined with a commercial operation. That could potentially indicate the need for large systemic change pending further investigation.

    What I don’t see is an obvious call for outrage; for heads to roll; to tear down the system to start over. Idk if there’s footage but the article writing makes it sound like Homenday is playing up the drama, but she could also just be passionate in what she’s saying.

    I’m seeking comfort in the belief that one of our damn systems in this country still functions. Sometimes we just need to read the post-mortem, make the changes, and let insurance pay the grieving families.
