What I love about this story is:
- the immediate & categorical response: 2 tail strikes within 6mins = shutdown all Alaska Air flights
- no bureaucratic process: One individual made the decision
- “That looks about right” gut check of automated data
- software sucks but it sucks worse when lives are at stake
- this sort of incident response is a credit to the aviation field and should be a model for all

  After Alaska Airlines planes bump runway while taking off from Seattle, a scramble to ‘pull the plug’
  from @adndotcom
  Alaska’s flight operations staff quickly realized that a software bug was sending bad takeoff weight data to its crews. They immediately figured out a workaround and normal flying resumed.
