Abalawuli base-Oakland bakhungathekile ukuze bagcine izindiza ziphephile

Bangaphezu kwesigamu abalawuli bezindiza abebesemsebenzini ngoLwesithathu ekuseni e-Oakland Center, kungazelelwe bazithole bengenalo ikhono lokuxhumana nezindiza ezihamba emoyeni noma ukusebenzisa izingcingo zasendlini ukuxhumana nezinye izikhungo zokulawula ukuhamba kwezindiza imizuzu engu-20 ubude. Abalawuli esikhungweni sase-Oakland baphoqeleke ukuthi baxhumane nezikhungo ezizungezile ze-FAA ngomakhalekhukhwini babo futhi baxhumanise imiyalelo yezindiza eyayidluliswa yilezi zikhungo ngamaza omsakazo wezimo eziphuthumayo.

Konke lokhu kudalwe yiphutha likasonkontileka omncane elidale ukuthi kuvalwe uhlelo lwe-FAA Telecommunications Infrastructure (FTI).

I-Oakland Center inesibopho sobubanzi bendawo yomoya ehlanganisa ingxenye enkulu esenyakatho yeCalifornia nezingxenye ezisentshonalanga yeNevada, ngaphezu kwezigidi zamamayela zendawo yomoya phezu koLwandlekazi iPacific.

Namuhla, amahora angu-48 ngemva kokunqamuka kwezokuxhumana, abalawuli bethrafikhi yezindiza babuza le mibuzo ebalulekile:

- Kungani i-FAA ibeke umsebenzi wokunakekela lolu hlelo olubalulekile lwezokuxhumana ezandleni zochungechunge losonkontileka abancane, esikhundleni sokuthi izisebenzi ze-FAA zenze umsebenzi?

- Kungani abalawuli bezindiza bengazange batshelwe ngoLwesibili ngomsebenzi wokulungisa kanye neqiniso lokuthi ukungasasebenzi ohlelweni kwasekugcineni, okwenza kuphoqeleke ukuthi lesi sikhungo sifakwe esimweni esithile sokuqapha?

- Yiliphi izinga lokuzethemba okufanele abalawuli babe nalo emsebenzini walaba bosonkontileka abancane okuthinta ngqo ukuphepha komphakathi endizayo?
Ukucima kuqale cishe ngo-8:00 am PDT kuya ku-8:30 am PDT ngoLwesithathu. Akukho okunye ukucisha okubikiwe kusukela ngaleso sikhathi.

Inkinga kubukeka iqale ngoLwesibili ngesikhathi osonkontileka abalungisa ocingweni nolayini bezokuxhumana bebona ukuthi kukhona inkinga. Isistimu yafakwa emugqeni wokulondoloza, kodwa asikho isaziso esinikezwe abalawuli bethrafikhi yezindiza ukuthi lokhu kwakwenzeka futhi akukho nkomba inqobo nje uma abalawuli kufanele baqaphe uma uhlelo luvaleka.

Ngaphambilini ngoLwesithathu, ngesikhathi kuxazululwa izinkinga zezintambo ze-FTI, ukudicilelwa phansi okwakhelwe ohlelweni lokusekelayo kwehlile, kwashiya ingxenye kuphela yesikhungo sinemisakazo kanye nokuxhumana ngocingo lwasendlini nezinye izinsiza. Ukwengeza, izindawo zokulawula indlela ye-radar yetheminali ezisebenzisana nazo zombili i-Oakland Center nezilawuli zombhoshongo wesikhumulo sezindiza azizange ziyithole idatha eziyidingayo ukuze zigcine ithrafikhi ihamba kahle.
