Controllers May Have Left Post Before Crash | Toronto News

Description

A chilling new twist emerges in the Air Canada regional jet crash at LaGuardia: two air traffic controllers may have left their posts an hour early—right before the fatal collision. The union confirms FAA investigations are underway, as officials vow to hold everyone accountable for airspace safety. The crash, which occurred just before midnight and killed two pilots, was exacerbated by a fire truck crossing the runway moments after clearance—its driver unaware of critical radio warnings and lacking tracking transponders. Investigators now face a complex web of system failures and human error, underscoring how fragile aviation safety truly is.
