Near miss over south of Ireland
« on: March 05, 2008, 07:17:39 PM »
Last September two aircraft, a 737 - 800 and a MD-83 , were 17 seconds from collision over the south coast of Ireland.This is the story from one of the national paper.

http://http://www.ireland.com/newspaper/breaking/2008/0305/breaking33.htm

This is the report from Air Accident Investigation Unit of the Irish Dept. of Transport.

As it was mentioned before on another post are the air traffic controllers over streched?

What are your thoughts,espically the controllers on this site.

the best thing to do is just paste the link as normal instead of pressing the hotlink button. i.e

This is the report from Air Accident Investigation Unit of the Irish Dept. of Transport
http://www.ireland.com/newspaper/breaking/2008/0305/breaking33.htm

the URL will automatically turn into a link.

I've edited your post to correct the url issues.  Any link you want to paste along with text has to be formatted as such:
Code: [Select]
[url=http://www.example.com]text[/url]
