Loading ...I digress, they are ATC, IMO, Back in the 1940s or 30s maybe. I don’t think many people would recognize that name any more than they’d recognize a 1C1X1 or Air Boss or God forbid if they place these AEI idiots the fast acting LSO,s.
Yes safety first, they own the run way. That is not in anyway impune the once strict standards according to the one I knew many years ago, really strict standards and responsibility as some could have been pilots themselves of the ATC and the lives they’ve saved be a ATC, air Boss, 1C1X1, air combat The story’s you don’t hear because they were averted. On the other hand incompetence of a ATC in the Canary Islands killed one of the kindest pediatrician I knew and his wife. He would go out of his way for parents who couldn’t afford a doctor by letting them negotiate a trade like painting or lawn mowing or something.
There should be a mutual respect and trust between them, not these incompetent disrespectful bubble gum chewing fools who can’t distinguish between a smart ass and a IQ disasters waiting to happen Karen’s that not only disregard safety but even common rules. You know one of the LSOs hand signals is a salute. Respect
