"That was tight..."
« on: July 26, 2011, 15:45:01 UTC »




            This exchange took place at O'Hare about 10 PM on Friday night.  AA 2374 (MD 80) and AWE 1624 (A321)

            were coming in at the same time.  Obviously, it was a spacing issue.  Not being a controller, I was just

            interested in the dynamics of the situation.  Any thoughts...

good catch.  It seemed like Tower didn't know exactly what approach was doing with AA 2374.  She didn't seem to miss a beat though.
