مقامات آمریکایی در حال تحقیق در این باره اند که چگونه به یک پسر بچه اجازه داده شده هدایت هواپیماها در فرودگاه جان اف کندی نیویورک را به دست بگیرد. خلبانان هواپیماها با کمال تعجب صدای یک پسر بچه را شنیدند که از برج مراقبت فرودگاه آنان راهدایت می کرد.

JFK Airport in New York is one of the largest airports in the country, handling nearly a thousand take-offs and landings a day. But just after 8pm on the 16th of February, there was somebody else in the control tower directing air traffic and giving instructions to pilots

: Recording from air traffic control

Boy: JetBlue 171 clear for take off

Pilot: Clear for take off JetBlue 171

The boy was speaking to an airbus A320 heading for Sacramento. The childs father, who is a certifited controller, brought his son to work and then put him to work as well

: Recording from air traffic control

Boy: JetBlue 171 contact departure

Pilot: Over to departure JetBlue 171. Awesome job

The young boy continued directing pilots for several take-offs, pilots appearing to be more amused than worried

The Federal Aviation Administration, which regulates Americas airports, hasnt released the names of the controllers involved but its not treating it as a joke. Its investigating the controller, as well as his supervisor. Both have been relieved of their duties

Some are saying the incident is being blown out of proportion since the youngster was repeating standard routine directions to pilots with the adults, presumably, alongside him. Its been revealed the controller in question brought his daughter in the following evening

The FAA has released a statement saying “This lapse in judgement not only violated the FAAs own policies but common sense standards for professional conduct. These kinds of distractions are totally unacceptable
