Ngokufika kwenkampani yesabelomali i-Southwest Airlines e-Hawaii, ezokuvakasha kungenzeka zishintshe unomphela Aloha Izwe. Njengoba izinkulungwane zabantu abengeziwe abafika e-Hawaii nsuku zonke, imali yokugibela indiza yehla, okwenza le ndawo ifinyeleleke kakhudlwana kwabaningi. Ngesikhathi esifanayo ukuvakasha okukhulu eHawaii kwadala usongo olubonakalayo lokuvakasha ngokweqile eziqhingini.
I-Overtourism iqale ingxoxo yokwephula umthetho i-AIRBNB ukuze kugwenywe ukwanda okwengeziwe kwerenti kanye nezimo eziphuthumayo ezingenamakhaya kuHulumeni.
Izakhamizi eziningi ezineminyaka eminingi zishiya uMbuso ngenxa yokuvakasha ngokweqile.
NgoFebhuwari 7, 2019, eTurboNews Ebuzwa uma kwakuphephile ukuthi Izindiza ZaseNingizimu-ntshonalanga zindize zisuka e-US Mainland ziye e-Hawaii endizeni i-Boeing 737-800.
Ukuze indize amabanga amade phezu kwe-Pacific, i-Southwest Airlines yayidinga ukuthola isitifiketi se-ETOPS endizeni enenjini engu-2.
Ngokuvamile i-FAA idinga okungenani iminyaka engu-1.5 yokusebenza okungenazinkinga ukuze ikhiphe isitifiketi esinjalo. Lokhu kuye kwahoxiswa kwabangu-787 ngezinhlekelele ezithile ekuqaleni.
Umkhulumeli we-Boeing uphendule i-eTN ngoFebhuwari 2019: "Siyenqaba ngenhlonipho ukuphawula nokubamba iqhaza endabeni yakho."
Kubukeka sengathi i-Boeing yethukile ngemuva kokuba abakwa-eTN bengabaza ukuphepha lapho besebenzisa indiza eklanyelwe izindiza ezimfushane noma ezimaphakathi zomzila omude ohamba phezu kwamanzi. I-Boeing 737 ekuqaleni yaziwa ngokuthi "i-City Jet" yezindiza ezifushane ukusuka edolobheni kuye kwelinye.
Khumbula, iNingizimu-ntshonalanga yinkampani enenzuzo, kube ukuphawula komfundi.
Namuhla umbuzo uthi ngabe i-FAA yayizimisele yini ukungakunaki ukuphepha ukuze ishweleze ngenzuzo yenkampani?
Imibiko emisha yomuntu oshaya ucingo edalula ukwephulwa kwezokuphepha okushaqisayo okwenziwe yisikhungo sikahulumeni esithenjwa ukuthi sigcina ukuphepha endizeni.
I-US Office of Special Counsel (OSC) iyisikhungo esizimele sophenyo kanye nesikhungo sokushushisa. Iziphathimandla zabo eziyisisekelo zivela emithethweni yombuso: Umthetho Wokuguqulwa Kwenkonzo Kahulumeni, Umthetho Wokuvikela I-Whistleblower, Umthetho We-Hatch, kanye NoMthetho Wezinkonzo Ezilinganayo Zokuqashwa Nokuqashwa Kabusha (USERRA).
Umgomo oyinhloko we-OSC ukuvikela uhlelo lokufaneleka ngokuvikela abasebenzi bakahulumeni kanye nabafake izicelo emikhubeni yabasebenzi enqatshelwe, ikakhulukazi ukuziphindiselela ngokubikelwa.
Ngokombiko we-Wall Street Journal, le nhlangano iphethe ngokuthi i-FAA kungenzeka inikeze iSouthwest Airlines impatho ekhethekile ekugunyazeni izindiza zendiza zisuka eCalifornia ziye eHawaii. Ngokusekelwe kuphela ekusizeni inkampani yezindiza "ilulame" ngokwezimali.
I-athikili ye-Wall Street Journal kusukela namuhla isola, abalawuli bezokuphepha emoyeni baseMelika kungenzeka benze okungafanele ngendlela abagunyaze ngayo iSouthwest Airlines. Co. ukuqala izindiza phakathi kweCalifornia neHawaii ngonyaka odlule.
Isiphetho sokuqala seHhovisi Lomeluleki Okhethekile siphathelene nezinsolo zesisebenzi se-Federal Aviation Administration zokuthi abaphathi be-ejensi banikeze inkampani yenethiwekhi impatho ekhethekile ngokusheshisa inqubo yokugunyaza nokunqanda amakhona ngezinye izindlela.
Abasebenzi bomeluleki “bathole ithuba elikhulu lokwenza okungalungile” ngabasebenzi be-FAA, ngokombhalo owodwa, phakathi kwemibhalo nama-imeyili amaningana phakathi kwabasebenzi kanye nombiko obuyekezwe yi-Wall Street Journal. Uphenyo alukadalulwa esidlangalaleni.
Isisebenzi, esinikezwe izivikelo ezisemthethweni, sisola ukuthi abaphathi be-FAA bazibandakanye “ekungaphetheni kabi nokuxhaphaza igunya” ukuze “kuzuze inkampani yezindiza,” ngokusho kwesifinyezo sommeli.
Izimangalo, izinsolo ze-FAA zifuna ukusiza iNingizimu-ntshonalanga ifinyelele enye yezinto ezibalulekile ekukhuleni kwayo, azihlobene nophenyo oluqhubekayo ku-B737-MAX.
Uma izinsolo zifakazelwa, nokho, zinganikeza ubufakazi obengeziwe bokuphelelwa yisikhathi kwe-FAA okulawula ukuphepha kwemboni yezokundiza.
I-FAA isivele ibhekene nokuhlolwa okujulile okuvela kubenzi bomthetho, abahambi, nabanye abagxeki abathi i-FAA inikeze igunya elikhulu ku-Boeing ekwakhiweni kwe-MAX. Izinsolo zakamuva, ezihlanganiswe nokwehluleka kwangaphambili kwe-FAA ukwenza inkampani yenethiwekhi iphendule ngokugcwele ngamaphutha okuphepha, ingase ibangele ukucutshungulwa kwezingozi ezingaba khona zokusebenza ezinkampanini zenethiwekhi ezihlukahlukene.
Uphenyo lwakamuva lwe-FAA lugxile ekutheni iNingizimu-ntshonalanga yayithola kanjani imvume ngoFebhuwari odlule yokwethula isevisi kuleyo mizila emide yolwandle. I-Southwest Airlines ibona ukunwetshwa kwe Aloha Isho njengemakethe yokukhula eyinhloko yenkampani yenethiwekhi.
Umkhulumeli waseNingizimu-ntshonalanga utshele i-WSJ ukuthi imvume "yenziwe ngamabomu futhi iphelele ekulandeleni zonke izinqubo ezisebenzayo." Inkampani yenethiwekhi ihambisane nezidingo ezijwayelekile ze-FAA futhi yahlangabezana nayo yonke imithetho ye-FAA phakathi nenqubo “eqinile” eyathatha cishe izinyanga eziyi-14, esho, ngaphandle kokuphendula izinsolo ezithile.
Umeluleki, ngokwemibhalo yabeluleki abakhethekile, usola ukuthi ukugunyazwa ngoFebhuwari odlule wezinhlelo zaseNingizimu-ntshonalanga yeHawaii bekuyingxenye yohlu lwezifiso olulungiswe yimboni "ukusiza izindiza ukuthi zilulame ngokwezimali" ekuvinjweni kukahulumeni ingxenye ethile ngoDisemba 2018.
I-FAA yenqabile ukuphawula ngale kokuqinisekisa ukuthi uphenyo lukhona.
Umzamo ubonakala uthele izithelo. Inkonzo yaseHawaii, eyaqala ngoMashi, ibingenye yezindawo ezigqamile ngo-2019 eNingizimu-ntshonalanga kulokho obekuyiminyaka eyinselele, njengoba inkampani yezindiza ibambana phezulu nokumiswa kwe-737 MAX.
Okhulumela ihhovisi labameli unqabile ukuphawula.
Ngaphambi kokuthi inkampani yezindiza yase-US isebenzise amajeli anenjini emibili ohambweni olunwetshiwe lwamanzi ahamba phezu kwamanzi amahora amaningi ukusuka ezikhumulweni zezindiza eziphuthumayo, ikhonjelwe ekubuyekezweni okukhethekile kokuphepha kwe-FAA, okuhlanganisa nokuzivocavoca okuhlukahlukene phansi okulandelwa izindiza eziyimbonakaliso ngaphandle kwabagibeli.
INingizimu-ntshonalanga, ethwala abagibeli abaningi basekhaya, indizela kuphela amamodeli we-Twin-engine 737 ye-Boeing Co.
Amajethi anenjini ezintathu nezine awekho ngaphansi kwemithetho efanayo.
Umhloli wendawo, owayenezicucu ezidingekayo, wehliselwa ekhabetheni ngesikhathi sezindiza ngenkathi abasebenzi basendlunkulu ye-FAA, ababejutshwe ukusheshisa ukugunyazwa, babelwa ukuthi bahlale endaweni yabashayeli, ngokusho kwesifinyezo.
Muva nje i- I-FAA ikhiphe abaphathi abathathu abakhulu ehhovisi lendawo eliseNingizimu ntshonalanga, phakathi kwezinye izinsolo zokungaqini mthetho ngokunethezeka kwezokuphepha eziphakanyiswe ngababizi besikhungo kanye nomphumela wemibuzo kahulumeni.
Ngaphansi kwamasonto amabili edlule, i- I-FAA ihlongoze inhlawulo engu-$3.9 million ngokumelene nenkampani yendiza ngokudluliswa nge-elekthronikhi kwedatha yesisindo sendiza. ISouthwest ithe izosebenzisana neFAA ukuxazulula lolu daba. I-ejensi iphinde yengeza ukubuyekezwa kokuthobela ukulayishwa kwemithwalo.
Amathikithi endiza yokuqala yenkampani yezindiza yaseHawaii athengiswa aphela ngokushesha ngemva kokudayiswa emasontweni amabili ngaphambi kokuba isevisi iqale.
INingizimu-ntshonalanga inikezela ngezindawo zase-Hawaii ukusuka e-Sacramento, Oakland nase-San Jose ngemikhumbi yayo yamanje yama-737s, kodwa ekugcineni ihlela ukusebenzisa amajethi angu-737 MAX akonga kakhulu, ngemva kwalawo abuyela enkonzweni. Lokhu kungase kube impikiswano ngokwakho.
