<h1>Probe finds airprox at major airport caused by controller loss of situational awareness amid overload and communication delays</h1> A probe agency found an airprox at a major airport was likely caused by loss of situational awareness by an aerodrome controller after an arriving aircraft's time-to-threshold breached the minimum and a departing aircraft was cleared, leading to intersecting projected flight paths when the arrival initiated a go-around. Contributory factors included controller cognitive overload, delayed communications during the missed approach, ineffective conflict-resolution instructions, and operational complexity. The report recommends the airport authority implement timely post-incident relief and a Critical Incident Stress Management programme with debriefings, peer support and counselling, require intercom use and aviation-English coordination between controllers, and direct the national meteorological agency to install wind-shear warning systems and improve wind-shear reporting.
