The worker was found "intentionally sleeping" during his midnight shift on February 19, 2011. He was on duty in the radar room. (www.wbir.com) 更多...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
Why isn't there at least two controllers in the tower on graveyard shifts? I guess they have forgotten about Comair flight 5191?
I live only a few miles from this airport. I don't want a jet crashing into anything due to ATC failure.
The thing that absolutely boggles my mind is that....at least according to this report.....this particular ATCr INTENTIONALLY was caught asleep....let me get this straight...he WANTED to get caught!!????!!!!
Who is the supervisory personnel responsible for this person? He had to have arrived with his bed sack during the previous shift wherein a supervisor was present. This guy makes good traffic controllers look bad. Fire him and worry about the legalities later. This is cut and dry.

You mean as in "please someone, stop me before I kill again!" ;)
No, he was "intentionally sleeping", meaning that he made deliberate plans and actions to nap rather than just falling asleep at his station.

Fire him now ! No excuse for his behavior.
He didn't nod off at his post, he made a bed with the intent of sleeping.
He was stealing from his employer as he collected his pay for duty he did not perform. How many nights had he done this in the past?
There is no defense for this person. The union should be happy to weed out this bum.
