Having worked the ramp at Kennedy and looked at least on the surface at several recent incidents, theres a few different ways it could happen. I dont want to speculate, until some more facts come out. And theres more near misses and incident on the ground that make the rounds.

Starting to read into it, it sure sounds like there was one controller in the tower running the whole show at the time of the incident. Not saying thats the case until the facts are in, but if its true he was running ground ops, working a smoke in cabin emergency and approach at the same time. Thats a hell of a workload for one person.
 
Wouldn't FAA be part of the mix as far as responsibility? Generally, evening departures supposedly cease after 2330 hours. The only activity, I'm told is the occasional incoming flight after midnight.. That being the case, why would FAA allow only ONE ATC in the tower before the midnight change in airport activity?

CADS-related question. The “cars” show up on a ticket?
 
From NBC News: Control tower recording contains the following comment from an air traffic controller: "I messed up". I hope this isn't true, but if it is, that controller needs our prayers, along with his/her union rep and a good lawyer.
