YouTube has the ATC audio and video.

American was told to cross runway 31L at taxiway K but missed it and crossed at J in front of Delta which had to abort takeoff roll.

That happened once already and it was a nightmare scenario.

Sounded like a birthing person pilot.

Had something similar happen on the way to Germany flying on Northwest.

In my case it was a major instrument failure that caused the abort. We stopped with just feet to spare before going into the water.

Now we know what happened to Beetle Bailey. He changed his name and ran for mayor of South Bend. We also know why the Sarge really didn’t like him. He kept gazing at his butt.

Just asking, do some Freepers give any thought to how their posts will be perceived? Like when virtue signaling in front of people who actually KNOW WHAT THEY ARE TALKING ABOUT?... What a pathetic post, bleating about which you know nought.

Fascinating event (though tragic) from beginning to end. As soon as KLM heard about the disaster, they wanted their most experienced pilot to lead their investigation team. ...Until they learned he was the offending pilot and killed in the collision of the two 747s.

I don’t disagree with anything you’ve posted there.

But do you even have any information about the race or ethnicity of any person involved in this incident — from either the airline industry or the FAA?

I didn’t know that about KLM’s proposed investigator. This episode at JFK made me think of Tenerife. Glad no one was hurt. Shudder. Whoa.

I could give a rats ass about what race people are generally, are they QUALIFIED? Nothing good comes from lowering standards, look how well it served the public school system

Not a good week for the FAA.

Or SW Airlines.
