  And the airlines are lobbying to get one pilot removed from every plane for cost cutting measures! What a great time to do that.
context: Here's the article's description of what happened:
  
  The FAA said a Boeing 737 operated by Delta Air Lines stopped its takeoff around 8:45 p.m. when air traffic controllers noticed another American Airlines aircraft crossing the runway. The Delta flight “stopped its takeoff roll approximately 1,000 feet” from the point where the American Airlines Boeing 777 had crossed, according to the FAA’s preliminary analysis. >
  
  From another article on this story, the current information suggests Air Traffic Control instructed a plane to turn at a certain intersection, but they turned at the wrong one, which put them into the path of another plane beginning to take off. Traffic Control was able to get the pilots to stop, however. Quick and great work by all involved if accurate. >
  
  Well... All except for the pilot that turned at the wrong intersection. >
  
  I make a mistake at work, someone down stream is mildly inconvenienced for a few minutes. Pilots make a mistake, it's a headline. I'll take my spreadsheets please and thank you. >
  
  Right? Jesus lmao
  I don't understand what kind of fortitude it takes to do high risk/sensitive jobs where mistakes mean lives or other destruction. I certainly don't have it. >
  
  Agreed. That's why I asked my boss to stop telling me what my work is used for.
