I can't imagine how scary this must have been for those two pilots

[@Gameflyer001]

Fortunately this ended up with no fatalities. However, there was a midair collision a year later over Uberlingen, Germany, between a DHL flight and a Bashkirian Airways flight. A similar situation, but both the controller (who was overloaded due to heavy understaffing) and TCAS (gave conflicting instructions to both flights) were to blame. By the time the pilots saw one another and tried to avoid disaster, it was too late. The DHL plane's tail sliced the Bashkirian plane's cockpit and forward passenger cabin off, and both crashed. An earlier comment noted that the recommendations for the previous near-miss were only published 11 days after this accident. Ironically in a twist of fate, the controller was later murdered by the father and husband of two of the victims of the Bashkirian flight at his home in Switzerland.

[@sanantonio855]

@@Gameflyer001 The controller was not overloaded, it was night time, but the maintenance failed to warn him that the STCA (short term conflict alert) had been desactivated for maintenance. It's something that flashes red on the radar screen if two planes have potentially dangerous trajectories. The controller detected the issue quite late, and told one pilot to climb and the other to descend. The onboard TCAS (Traffic Collision Avoidance System) however said the opposite to pilots, and one pilot listened to the TCAS (and that's the right thing to do) and the other listened to the controller (wrong thing to do). So the TCAS didn't give conflicting instructions. Anyway now it's clear in controller training : if a pilot says "RA TCAS", the only thing you have to answer is "Roger". So three people are to blame : the controller who didn't detect the conflict, the pilot who ignored his TCAS and the maintenance guys who didn't warn the controller of the STCA's deactivation.

[@vernement4752]

I don't get, this kind of error doesn't happen often, but sometimes you make a mistake. That's how you learn just about any job. The trainer is supposed to pick up on it immediately, but even if they both fail, as long as it's not negligence there's no reason to send anyone to jail. In France for instance you really have to fuck up big time to just get fired.

[@Zydico]

@@Wonderkid44 completely agreed. The US has laws to protect people in cases like this, but I guess Japan doesn't. It was a complete accident with no intent to actually kill people, so I'm confused why they were sent to prison. They should have gotten some punishment, but making a mistake is the equivalent of committing a crime? I'd be afraid of even working as an air traffic controller in japan if this was the case!

[@thien4223]

Additional information: IATA now rules that TCAS resolutions now have priority over instructions by ATC. Two planes collided for this exact reason in 2002 over Germany

[@Szydencer]

At Überlingen, the captain of the Boeing initiated descent according to TCAS recommendation, while at the same time the captain of the Tupolev ignored the TCAS advisory to climb in favour of an incorrect instruction from the ATC. Had both captains followed the TCAS instructions, the collision would have been avoided. EDITED as I must've misunderstood the op's original message - indeed the 2002 collision happened because TCAS was NOT treated with priority at the time

[@FireFlash_TheUmbraPonyGuardian]

it happened above the Bodensee as we call it wich is part of the Swiss Border if i am correct, one of the captains follows tcas while the other does listen to his flight guide(idk the shortcut) this guy then doesnt know what went wrong and that tcas is a tive and telling the pilot the right direction both are facing the same location at the same time and arrive there just like told,the top aircraft rushes through the entire passenger cabin and cuts the lower airplane into too much parts, only the cockpit remains and slowly faces the earths falling down with little movement remaining, pilots screaming like hell and not anymore being able to breath suffer their death coming slowly towards them, the others in the heavily damaged aircraft lost the rear wing entirely to turn left and right same as up and down, slowly moving towads the ground trying to rescue as much as possible without any hope and the aircraft just turning sideways very slowly, feeling this is unimaginable terrible and hurts your heart till you finally explode on the ground just to end your hell like terrible suffering as well, and after both planes explode the guide is trying to contact both aircrafts without 1 single response knowing that a hellfire tragedy has occured on his duty, he crashes mentally and leaves the controller room while someone replaces his working position for the rest of the duty, later the reporters arrive and the guide disappears not telling anything, months later a old man appears near his home with a murder knife slowly approaching the guides house and murdering him once the door is open, he got no answer to why he lost the person near him who died on the big crash, later this entire part of human history ends up in heaven and for the dead guide a red flower is added to the controllers room to thank for his services and remember the big accident My Opinion: Aircraft History never was save enough to save the people this day, right now when i wrote this comment i even cried since i remember ever detail in the documentation.

Tcas: an emergency system, your last line of defense against hitting another plane. Pilots that day: I'll ignore it.

[@RichFreeman]

Wasn't this before procedures around this were established? It was a culture issue I think. Do you obey the passive computer, or the human being working for the government who can report you? US regulations make it clear that TCAS gets the final say but I'm not sure what the regs were in Japan at the time.

[@Father_Qese]

This is probably before most aviation authorities specified that you follow TCAS over the ATC due to there being a missunderstanding in it's earlier days when TCAS was first implemented, most older pilots didn't trust the new system and chose to follow the ATC because in most situations you HAVE TO follow what the ATC says and can be reprimanded for not doing so. After the DHL crash over Europe EASA made it clear that all pilots just follow TCAS if there is conflicting information from the ATC.

[@MrMeerkat818]

Actually when the incident happend, most countries didn't specify that TCAS outruled ATC so it was a bit of a pilot's own judgement thing. I mean it took the 2002 Uberlingen mid-air collision (the DHL and Bashkirian mid-air collision, as misto has mentioned) for the rule that TCAS outruled ATC to really come into place and enforced everywhere.

[@Teampegleg]

As long as I'm on the island though I'm not stuck in Britain.

I can understand the supervisor getting time for extreme negligence, however that's extremely harsh for a brand new trainee who was obviously put under someone deemed incompetent.

[@reconx86]

I also disagree with the jail sentence, what is a jail-sentence supposed to add? Are they supposed to learn from their mistake? They already lost their job. They didn't act with malice, they weren't intoxicated, especially the new controller on the job couldn't have known better than his supervisor. I think the only person that might be to blame could be the supervisor for not noticing she put to much pressure on the new controller... (and finally we don't know if she was in a situation she couldn't have performed better). Regardless I find a jail sentence to harsh, especially because jail sentences are there to make people reflect on their mistakes and to keep dangerous people away from society. I know in the US people see punishment more as a tool for revenge, but in the civilized world we still care about a sensible justice system. Jail sentences are meant to serve a purpose, not to just inflict pain on someone for your own entertainment. There is more than one way to hold someone accountable.

Aviation rule: in the event of possible traffic collision TCAS has priority over an air traffic controller!

[@nogagoesbrrr1275]

Airbus would take control and climb

[@BirdieRumia]

That rule came into existence because of this near miss and the Uberlingen mid-air collision. It didn't exist at the time.

[@regionaljets1116]

That rule didn’t come in until a year later when pretty much this exact incident occurred again but this time killing everyone on board.

[@curiouscat8457]

Not in Russia (seriously). Russians also have the artificial horizon reversed (seriously).

[@regionaljets1116]

Curious Cat that was the main cause of the überlingen disaster in the first place, with the baskierian airlines tu-154. Although I’m pretty sure they changed that worldwide not so long after. Seems a bit strange the artificial horizon is reverse though

[@Louis-pi5sz]

I don’t understand why the trainee would be given jail time for that? He’s literally a trainee you’d expect a mistake to be made, and since he literally fixed it, but because of a systematic error it didn’t reach the pilots

[@MappingEagle]

Simultaneously keeping track of 12 planes is not a one man job, especially as a trainee. Change my mind.

[@danese1636]

I would have thought that the manager of the trainee would have been imprisoned for, you know, not controlling the situation she created by placing an underqualified person with an excessive amount of responsibilities, then gave instructions to a nonexistent flight number (which she should have KNOWN was incorrect as the FREAKING MANAGER OF MANAGING THE GOD DAMN AIRWAYS!

[@lachlankeddie7]

It's disturbing that a year later an actual collision caused by eerily similar circumstances occurred over Überlingen, Germany...

[@ReyMysterioX]

I was actually thinking about the timeline of these because I know that after Überlingen, a decision was made that TCAS always overrides any conflicting other instruction from ATC. But it makes sense now, given that this incident in Japan happened before Überlingen.

[@jl5529]

Lachlan Keddie I was so sad because one of the flights was a school trip

[@jl5529]

Lachlan Keddie Another similar one but with the pilots fault was the Mato Grosso in 2006 in Brazil where the 737 got destroyed and the learhet survived

[@andrekpt2459]

@@ReyMysterioX Pretty sure the rule would have been made after the japanese incident anyway. It's just that the Überlinger accident occured barely 1.5 years afterwards. I might be wrong but this was simply a case of investigations being just unluckily slow. The JAL report was published barely 11 days after the überlingen incident. It was actually that JAL report which prompted the ICAO to pass the rule.

[@mohit_panjwani]

@@riggs20 he’s talking about Tenerife involving Panam and klm 747s

[@CrashCo]

This exact thing did happen over Germany, the planes received their TCAS alerts that would have worked, but Air Traffic Control gave one plane a conflicting order and the pilots listened to that order instead of the TCAS. The planes crashed and a guy even killed the Air Traffic Controller later on because his wife and two children were on the plane. It's known as the 2002 Überlingen mid-air collision and is a very interesting thing to read about.

It astounds me that ANY commercial pilot flying today is ignorant of how the T-CAS functions. It is inexcusable that any pilot would follow ATC instructions over and in opposition to those of T-CAS. Any person who understood how and WHY operates couldn't possibly make that choice. T-CAS supercedes and takes precedent over ANY other instructions, flight plans or pilots choices. It only works if it's commands are followed fully and immediately. Any pilot who is uaware or unsure of this should not be flying, period. This event is absolutely mind boggling. Japans airline industry should be required to have every single pilot it employs attend remedial training and tested regarding the appropriate response and the proper action taken should T-CAS deploy. Answer should be in essay form, but the only passing answer is one sentence: "DO WHATEVER T-CAS TELLS ME TO DO!"

It apperntly really scared some people seeing bodies fall from the sky. One person on the ground was even killed by the crash
