Post subject: | sleeping faa controllers?? try one who was watching a movie! |
an oberlin ohio based air traffic controller was suspended for watching a crime thriller pic instead of his radar screen on a laptop or portable device. the movie was "cleaner" with samuel l. jackson. a military pilot got to listen in because for about 3 minutes the controller's mic was activated transmitting the soundtrack of the movie over the radio for that space frequency, hence he reported the incident.. faa control oberlin ohio is a regional station which covers most of the midwest states & north east u.s.a. i live 15 minutes from oberlin & my house is on the eastern approach to cleveland hopkins int. airport which is 40 minutes from me. maybe i'll send them some hacky sacks!! blue skys y'all!! ![]() |
