Someone is getting this as an avatar. I don't know who, but it's gonna happen.

I read a Jeremy Clarkson book, in which he describes the accident between two 747 aircraft. Much the same dealio: bad weather, experienced pilots not really paying attention/being impatient. It wasn't exactly the same, because one of the pilots also misunderstood the ATC instructions, but y'know. Planes may be delicate and pilots overworked, but it seems like it takes a lot to actually cause a crash.

Tenerife is fascinating in terms of how much of modern phraseology and CRM can be directly traced back to it.
