Sydney airport runway safety working group sees no immediate danger
A newly formed working group says recent air traffic control incidents at Sydney Airport do not pose an immediate risk to passengers, though it calls for independent oversight of planned improvements.
A working group set up after a series of runway incursions and air traffic control incidents at Sydney Airport has found no immediate threat to passengers. The Australian Transport Safety Bureau is investigating the events, linked to staffing shortages and operational problems at Airservices Australia. The provider plans to hire more controllers and make its air traffic management more resilient. The working group has requested independent scrutiny of those steps and will monitor their progress.
