NTSB report shows key failures after LaGuardia crash

We are learning more after the National Transportation Safety Board said Thursday that a critical runway safety system did not ​activate before the March 22 collision between an Air Canada Express ‌jet and a fire truck that killed two pilots. According to Fox News, the report found that an air traffic control tower’s local controller cleared an airport rescue vehicle to cross an active runway even as a regional jet was on a short final approach. LiveNOW’s Andy Mac is speaking with Randy Klatt from the Foundation for Aviation Safety as the ​NTSB says the local controller who was handling the Air Canada plane had about 18 years of experience before the incident.
