Harrowing details from LaGuardia collision

Frontier 4195, just stop there, please. Stop. Stop. Stop. Stop. Truck one, stop. Stop. Stop. Stop. Stop, truck one. Stop. Stop, truck one. Stop. And so you can see just how urgent that air traffic controller was trying to get the message across for that truck to stop. That truck was on its way to a United Airlines flight that had a separate report of an odor that it was going to assist in that, and then that's when this all happened, Reed. So just a tragic event that we watched in real time. We understand Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy will be giving an update. And there's been this conversation, Tom, in our country about exhausted air traffic controllers. They exist to make sure that things like this don't happen, that they, indeed, have control. Are you getting any sense of how many people were in the tower, maybe with eyes on this to avoid this? That is a central focus of this investigation, Reed, and that is something we're going to be following very closely. It does appear to us that this singular air traffic controller, who was communicating to the aircraft and to this emergency vehicle was juggling a lot. He was dealing with a lot. So we are going to be zeroing in on if he was the only person in the tower, how properly staffed the tower was. That is a central question that certainly needs to be answered. But to your point, Secretary Duffy has spoken extensively about the fact that air traffic controllers are very much strained because of staffing shortages, something that was made worse several months ago, as you may remember, when many of them walked off the job without pay. And these air traffic controllers, they take a long time to train. This is not something where you can just hire them and they start in a matter of a couple of weeks. This is something that's months of extensive training, a very critical role in all of the air travel around the country, Reed.

Some harrowing accounts. Learning about that flight attendant still strapped in her seat and that wreckage behind you. Tom Hanson, thank you so much for that update.
