A pilot flying a Delta Air Lines regional jet on Friday apologized to his passengers after making a hard turn to avoid colliding with a US Air Force B-52 bomber, audio from the incident shows.
The incident occurred on SkyWest Flight 3788, which was operating as a Delta Connection flight, from Minneapolis, Minnesota, to Minot, North Dakota, SkyWest said in a statement.
The flight landed safely in Minot “after being cleared for approach by the tower but performed a go-around when another aircraft became visible in their flight path,” the statement read.
At least with rails the absolute worst that can happen is a chemical spill, with planes and jets it could be as bad as a chemical airburst not even factoring in debris fields and other secondary shit. Frankly speaking I don’t think there is anyways to have a minimum viable ATC with a corporation at least not a publicly traded one since they’d probably sell it to some publicly traded company that’ll be bunk in five years.
I mean, you can have worse than chemical spills with trains. You can have entire towns blowing up. But yeah, you’ll probably get even worse with ATC.
I was thinking about that one derailing that dumped chlorine and more or less sterilized an entire valley back in the 80s(?). When I say chemical spill I meant worst case chemical spill.
