    Clearing a plane to takeoff while another plane is on a low visibility CATIII ILS approach is asking for trouble. Planes telling ATC they are ready for takeoff when they are actually not ready for takeoff and not warning ATC there will be a delay is also asking for trouble. The extra training for controllers is always good, but are most ATC facilities staffed to a level they can afford to pull people off the line in order to complete the training? Public information says KAUS is staffed at 78% with a not insignificant part of that staff being still in training. If we are pulling controllers from the line someone has to fill that spot and if that spot requires another controller working overtime we are trading one problem for another. It is likely when the FAA says "sprint" they are speaking about an AGILE process, a set period of time to work on a particular problem or set of problems. A search for AGILE sprint will explaining it better than I can. GA aircraft are required to have ADSB out to operate in class A, B or C airspace, that would cover airports like KAUS. It is great for the NTSB to recommend these changes, but if they are not funded by congress they will not get done. Thank you for posting this publicly, it was very interesting and important interested people have access.

      but your first two points make the solution very clear: don't let the pilots decide, play it safe. Don't do the first, because you have to expect the second. As safe as it is complete, undisputed standard in almost all other countries. I'm pretty sure in the EU the runway has to be free. Period.

      ​@@marcususaThe "takeoff plane" was 1/2 a mile of taxiway FROM 18L when they called "short of one eight left". They hadn't even crossed 18R when calling "short of" 18L. They were nowhere near READY for takeoff.

      @@deeremeyer1749 That has NOTHING to do with my statement. Congestion is still congestion, 1 less plane is still 1 less plane once it gets off into the air. You going on about a .5 mile is like saying, "A car is approaching a green light at an intersection, so why can't just one car perpendicular (with a red light), squeeze on through?" Think about the traffic on ground compared to the air. The air has a lot more space, and once it is directed in the direction it needs to go, it is no longer an issue for that airport. Apparently, the .5 mile did matter because there was a near collision.

      Why wasn't SW708 cleared for 17R and the FedEx cleared for 17L?
      It sounds like ATC dropped the ball, but the FedEx crew was already suspecting a runway incursion due to the response from SW708 and ATC haphazardly realizing that they were trying to push two planes on the sane runway at the same time.

    • @jonr9858

      @@delanorrosey4730 A very good question. Both aircraft were cleared to use 18L which is the shorter runway. 18L is a 9000-foot runway, and 18R is a 12,250-foot runway.

    I think that the tower controller should never proceed with clearance for takeoff before he is certain where the FedEx is and if there is enough time for the SW to take off, and if not, hold himself back from giving a clearance for takeoff until such time that the FedEx landed and is off the runway.
    Meaning that on this foggy day, he must wait until FedEx lands and contacts the tower that he left the runway before allowing SW to even line up and wait. And only then give him the clearance for take off...
    I very much like the FedEx training on a "Startled effect" go arounds especially for category 3 auto lands.
    It's like blancolirio's Juan Brown said: "Every landing is a go around unless you can prove that the runway is clear of traffic & obstacles"
    This pilot had his hands on the throttles ready to push the toga button and advance the throttles.
    He overcame his "startle effect" real quick and thus saved many lives in this incident.
    In my eyes, he is the real hero (and FedEx training) in this event.

    2:52:34 why not have a dual CVR system, more practical for non-destructive incidents.
    1) The traditional CVR (the ~$25,000) unit designed to survive crashes, fires, and submerged scenarios, plus
    2) a simple lockable, removable memory chip device containing a copy of the same data.
    The secondary device could be designed to act as a preserver of data for any significant incident for any plane remaining powered on, or in service.
    The pilots could activate a "protect recording" feature in order to preserve the precious audio.
    The removable device could be removed at a convenient follow-up destination by authorised personnel under secure conditions, and handled with all sensitivity and industry protections required.
    It shouldn't be such a big drama to have cockpit audio after incidents where there was no crash.

      Hmmmm. 6 seconds before take off roll - you can see them on the TCAS screen (?) + you have been told that traffic is on 3 mile final - no ATC calls to confirm? No position reporting on the runway by the southwest crew? What's going on with the Southwest crew? I am now concerned that I will be traveling on Southwest this summer - hopefully the crew will be more alert and competent.

  • @rreiter
    @rreiter 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    But for the controller clearing the SW jet, this would not have happened, given that the controller had no direct spatial awareness of all aircraft desiring runway use. Zippering of runway departures and arrivals at 3 mile intervals during CAT III conditions is stupid whether an aircraft on the ground is stopped holding short or still taxiing 550 feet away, if all it takes is a 15 or 20 second distraction on the ground to cause a catastrophe. So stop doing that.

  • @FullLengthInterstates

    When she talks about all the lives that were at risk during recent incidents, let us think about all the lives that are risked on a daily basis during near misses on our roads. We already know the statistics of the automotive risks that are actualized every year. Airplanes are an incredible concentration of resources, and that is why we have a federal organization that investigates every plane crash. The process from investigations to recommendations to implementation has made airlines the safest mode of transportation, if only we could be as serious about preventing car crashes.

    • @Thisandthat8908

      your local authorities do NOT set the traffic lights up that both roads are green at the same time so they can get more traffic through.
      Which is exactly what ATC seems to do all the time. Usually by mistake.
      Yes, in the grand scheme of things it happens very rarely. But more than in other major air traffic regions. And "elsewhere it's more risky" is (always) a lousy excuse.

      It was still Night Conditions (no/ low sunlight) at 06:40 am in February winter time, in CATIII ILS conditions with only 600 feet RVR (at minimums), so SWA708 couldn't really see the end of the taxiway/ hold line/ AER of RWY 18L coming in front of them. The crew was planning on departing without delay (not stopping). But because they had to use a de-icing system, it required them to stop and do a 30 sec. engine runup which they cut down to 19 seconds. And _"at the time of the incident, there was an extremely low traffic volume and complexity at AUS."_

    This whole incident highlights the need for crew members and air traffic controllers to have a much better and clearer radio communications. There's no need to add things to AIM. Southwest crew was not ready for takeoff when they said they were ready. Plus, they took their sweet little time to get going with their takeoff run. Very poor SA by the Southwest crew. The tower controller should have demanded no delay on the Southwest takeoff roll, as the FedEx aircraft was at a 2 mile final, probably less on low visibility operation. In the end, the tower controller should've told Southwest to hold short of the runway, while the inbound 767 was on the 2 mile final. You need to slow things way down and operate at the proper pace, that allows for high levels of safety, and crews need to properly perform briefings and request / communicate with ATC if more time is needed, based of the current weather conditions at hand and procedures required for the operation of the aircraft. Common sense is not very common after all.

  • @ikefork2606
    @ikefork2606 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +6

    After receiving and confirming the "takeoff" clearance, the flight crew of the Southwest aircraft took way too long to commence its takeoff roll. Given the adverse environmental circumstances that morning, with severely restricted visibility, the Southwest flight crew demonstrated a lack of situational awareness poor judgement, and little to no sense of urgency. Their performance was not commensurate with the duties and responsibilities of an ATP certificated pilot. The Southwest flight crew's marginal performance nearly placed the passengers of his aircraft, and the FedEx crew in danger of a runway collision, which could have caused substantial injury and/or death. Good Job FedEx! Southwest you blew it badly!

If we haven’t done pre-takeoff yet, which includes the runup, it’s a no-go, since we aren’t actually ready. If it’s been done, we get moving.
