February 1, 1991. Thirty-four passengers died at the Los Angeles International Airport when an incoming US Air Boeing 737 collided with a smaller SkyWest Metroliner commuter plane. The US Air jet landed on the smaller craft, flattening it and dragging it in flames into the side of an abandoned fire station. The crash claimed all 12 people on the smaller plane and 22 of the 89 aboard the larger US Air jet.

A colleague of mine was on the smaller plane.

Sorry you had to lose a colleague that way. Was that another case of controller screw-up?

Sorry about your colleague. My husband and sister both worked as ground crew for USAirways at the time of the crash. I will never forget the photos they took of that accident.
