Abalawuli base-US abanako ukuvumela abaqhubi beenqwelo-moya bathathe into ebizwa ngokuba yi-naps elawulwayo kwii-cockpits njengenxalenye yokulungiswa kwemimiselo yokuphumla, intloko yezokhuseleko ye-Federal Aviation Administration yathi namhlanje.
"Andilindelanga ukuba siza kucebisa" i-naps, uPeggy Gilligan, umlawuli onxulumene ne-FAA, uxelele ikomitana yezophapho ye-Senate eWashington. Abaqhubi beenqwelomoya kufuneka beze emsebenzini belungele ukubhabha iishifti yabo epheleleyo ngaphandle kokulala, utshilo.
Amagqabantshintshi acebisa ukuba i-US ayisayi kujoyina iCanada, iFrance kunye ne-Australia ekuvumeleni abaqhubi beenqwelomoya ukuba bathathe ikhefu elifutshane ngexesha lezigaba ezingabalulekanga zokubhabha. Iinqwelomoya zase-US, abaqhubi beenqwelo moya kunye nabameli bezokhuseleko baye bawuvuma lo mkhuba njengendlela yokuthintela abaqhubi ukuba balale bengaqondanga.
I-FAA iqalise ukuyibhala ngokutsha imigaqo elawula ukudinwa komqhubi wenqwelo-moya kulo nyaka emva kweengozi zenqwelo-moya, njengenye ekufuphi neBuffalo, eNew York, eyabulala abantu abangama-50, yaphakamisa inkxalabo ngokuphumla. Imithetho emitsha iya kugqitywa kunyaka ozayo kunokuba i-31 Disemba kuba ithatha ixesha elide kunokuba bekulindelwe, uGilligan uthe.
"Ngamanye amaxesha umqhubi wenqwelomoya unokuziva ediniwe ngokungalindelekanga," uBill Voss, umongameli we-Flight Safety Foundation e-Alexandria, eVirginia, uxelele iphaneli. "Kukhuseleke ngakumbi ukuba nenkqubo ekhoyo yokuvumela umqhubi wenqwelo-moya odiniweyo ukuba alale ixesha elimiselweyo enolwazi olupheleleyo lomqhubi-nqwelo-moya."
Iqela lokurhweba kubathwali base-US, kuquka i-Delta Air Lines Inc., i-AMR Corp.'s American Airlines kunye ne-Southwest Airlines Co., yathi uphando lwe-federal lunika ubungqina "obukhulu" bokuba i-naps elawulwayo inciphisa umngcipheko wokudinwa.
“Kufuneka sisebenze kobo bungqina,” uBasil Barimo, usekela mongameli woMbutho wezoThutho loMoya oseWashington, uxelele iphaneli.
Uhambo Lobusuku Bonke
IBhodi yeSizwe yoKhuseleko lwezoThutho ihlola ubungqina obunokuthi bubonise ukudinwa kwabasebenzi be-cockpit ngaphambi kokuphahlazeka kwenqwelomoya yePinnacle Airlines Corp. Colgan ngoFebruwari 12 kufuphi neBuffalo. Inqwelomoya yasuka eNewark, eNew Jersey.
Umqhubi wenqwelomoya, uMarvin Renslow, oneminyaka engama-47 ubudala, ungene kwinkqubo yekhompyutha yenkampani ngo-3:10 ekuseni ngomhla wengozi, kunye nomqhubi wenqwelomoya uRebecca Shaw, oneminyaka engama-24, waya emsebenzini ubusuku bonke esuka eSeattle, apho wayehlala nabazali bakhe, ngokutsho. kwi-NTSB. Eli qumrhu lisaphanda ngale ngozi.
“Kum kubonakala ngathi akukho namnye kubo oye walala ebusuku,” utshilo uSenator uByron Dorgan, uMdemokhrasi waseMantla eDakota, obechophele iingxoxo zephaneli malunga nokudinwa komqhubi wenqwelomoya namhlanje.
Abaqhubi ababini beMesa Air Group Inc.'s Go! walala ngoFebruwari 13, 2008, ngoxa wayehamba ngenqwelo-moya esuka eHonolulu isiya eHilo, eHawaii, ngaphambi kokuba ifike ngokukhuselekileyo, i-NTSB yaqukunjelwa ngo-Agasti. Inqwelomoya yahamba iimayile ezingama-30 ukudlula apho ibisiya khona ngaphambi kokuba ibuye umva indlela, kwaye abaqhubi beenqwelomoya bebengadibananga nabalawuli bezithuthi zomoya kangangemizuzu engama-25.
'Umzamo wokuGqibela wokuGqibela'
I-Air Line Pilots Association, enamalungu angama-53,000 owona mbutho mkhulu womqhubi wenqwelomoya, ixhasa i-naps elawulwayo "njengomzamo wokugqibela wokuzama" ukuqinisekisa ukuba abaqhubi beenqwelomoya baphaphile ngenqwelomoya, utshilo uJohn Prater, umongameli weqela.
Imithetho yangoku yokuphumla komdibaniso inciphisa abaqhubi beenqwelomoya ukuba babhabhe hayi ngaphezulu kweeyure ezisibhozo ngosuku, nangona benokusebenza ukuya kuthi ga kwiiyure ezili-16, kubandakanywa nexesha elisezantsi phakathi kwenqwelomoya.
Uhlaziyo lomgaqo we-FAA luza kubandakanya "isikali sokutyibilika," ukuze abaqhubi beenqwelo moya basebenze ixesha elide kwiinqwelomoya ezimgama omde zamazwe ngamazwe kwaye mfutshane ukuba bathatha uhambo oluninzi kunye nokumisa kwindawo yokutshintsha okanye ukubhabha ngobusuku, utshilo uGilligan weFAA.
I-arhente ayikasithathi isigqibo malunga neyure ekujoliswe kuyo kwiintlobo ezahlukeneyo zokubhabha, utshilo. I-FAA iphinda ihlolisise indlela yokujongana nohambo lokuhamba, nokuba kubandakanywa iimfuno kumgaqo okanye ukubonelela ngesikhokelo kubathwali malunga neendlela ezifanelekileyo, uGilligan uthe.
