another airplane fuck up

was this already mentioned here? Link to video

That was quite an interesting video and explanation. I have not heard of that situation. It is amazing to me that they can understand everything that is said. I had trouble, and I played some sections a couple of times. If it wasn't for the captions, I would not know what they were saying.

I always wonder if it's clearer to the actual folks communicating? I know a lot of it is standard phrases so they become quick/abbreviated, but still... captions always help. I don't want to be in total robot mode, but it's surprising we aren't at a point where autopilot controls at least the heading and altitude for all departures and arrivals at this point. The fact that a runway is both 1R (and also 28R) at the same time, with a 1L and 28L next to it, as we said in another airplane near-miss thread... is just asking for disaster. Relying on a pilot to read box 2 instead of box 1 manually... @Copper are the transmissions clearer when actually communicating?

I think that they are clearer when actually communicating. The source of the recording will make a difference. A lot of what we might hear on Facebook or YouTube probably comes from this place: Here for SFO https://www.liveatc.net/search/?icao=ksfo These live and recorded broadcasts are monitored and recorded by volunteers. I assume they have standards, but you get what you get. You can go back and listen to recordings, but not all are available.

 1R and 19L are the same runway.
 28L/R and 10 R/L are the crossing runways
