The US officers are looking into how a child was able to direct planes at one of the countrie's busiest airport (New York's JFK). They caught the boy, who was apparently with his father (certified air traffic controller), directing several pilots preparing for take-off by an audiotape (you can listen to it at the bbc webpage). The incident took place on 17 February, when many pupils were on a week-long break. The air traffic controller got the sack and The National Air Traffic Controllers Assosiation said this incident was not indicative of the highest professionals they have.
I cannot understand how that little boy was able to do that. I think it was a terrrible mistake from the father to let him do it. Beeing an air traffic controller is so serious because the life of a huge amount of people depends on you. What would have happened if the kid had said something wrong? I really do not want to imagine! I suppose that man didn't realize how igriveous was that situation. I agree about his dismissal, that behaviour is not acceptable! On the other hand, I guess they were not the only ones there so someone else could have stopped it, though as the audiotape proves, nobody did. All in all, it was just luckily hilarious.
