How sweet it is that the love continues. One lonely Air Traffic Controller falls asleep at the Yoke at Reagan International Airport with two Commercial jets on the approach.
Are these not the same people Reagan let go while on strike then rehired all anew after applying? Ironic it happens at Ronald Reagan International.
Now the new rule is that there will be 2 controllers on the aptly named graveyard shift. Almost a graveyard for a couple if jets full of unsuspecting flyers. So now Ragan regains twice the depth of control sought after constraints imposed by Reagan.

Now Ronny had a few good liners. The State of these United and American airlines planes could have been dire. These birds are essentially landing on instruments and are in total belief and trust of the controllers.
Last night I purloined that link from my meta search. It was on the first page of my search. This morning not 8 hours later my search it's buried some 20 pages into the search for the same inventory of words.
Now the best line in this whole foisted fiasco is the last line in this clip.

While even the regal Reagan was asleep at the wheel for most of his terms in office, we knew he was not a high flyer. In fact his wife was known to ensure that he zipped when needed to.
Ronny has his fans to this day. 4 huge turbo fans adorn this Boeing Air force one plane recently restored by said company and on display at the namesakes Presidential library.
They really Knute Rockne’d this one out of the ole Control Tower today!
