Did anyone notice the 3rd bee crash into the ledge and almost fall off?

What if honey is really just moonshine for bees. Thats why they protect the hive so much, they dont want to get caught, and that's why bears raid beehives. Bears are just misunderstood, they're like the DEA of the wild.

Hover over the blue 'swarm theory', and give it a read.

TL;DR swarm theory means that basically non verbal communication is usually more efficient than verbal.

[–]Cptn_Hook 28 points29 points ago

The air traffic controller got their numbers switched around. The crash was inevitable.

[–]theodrixx 3 points4 points ago

Someone please tell me there are safeguards for this kind of shit in real life.

[–]pleione 6 points7 points ago

Each radar return has an alphanumeric tag next to it, but there's nothing preventing a controller from speaking the wrong number. I'm not sure it's possible to prevent all human error.

Unless you meant bee ATC. In which case, yes, the bees have invested an extremely large amount of money into a top-notch foolproof air-traffic control system.

[–]AdmiralQuackbar 1 point2 points ago

But it clearly failed! Nothing is foolproof!

[–]pleione 1 point2 points ago

This was an uncontrolled airfield utilizing the apiary version of UNICOM. Pilot error. The system is infallible!

[–]DJ_Tips 1 point2 points ago

In general aviation your callsign is usually self assigned (The aircraft model and tail number, usually) so they won't even say things like "Honey 21" except when you first contact them. If I'm in a Tomahawk with the tail number 12345AB, they'll just call you "5AB". It's fairly hard to mix it up. Airlines have their own system, but also scheduled routes they do pretty much the exact same way every day.

ATC's have a very tough job, but ultimately they're human. Shit happens from time to time. Fortunately the pilot has ultimate authority to refuse directions from a controller if his instructions are completely wonky, so truly catastrophic miscommunications aren't common.

I have had controllers tell me to do some really bizarre shit when they weren't paying attention, though.

[–]kirbs2001 2 points3 points ago

what sort of bizarre shit?

[–]DJ_Tips 1 point2 points ago

One time I was in a small helicopter and had a guy tell me to climb to 10,000' before entering his airspace (which was about a mile from where I was at 800'). I had to reiterate that I was in a small helicopter and I probably wouldn't make it to 10,000'.

Another time I had a guy direct myself and another helicopter onto a head-on collision course.

I also had a Navy ATC clear me across the approach path at his base only to frantically call me back and tell me to begin circling immediately because he'd apparently neglected to consider that I would have crossed right in front of two F/A-18's that were on final approach.

Again, 99.9% of the time controllers are absolutely on the ball and do an incredible job considering how much traffic they're playing with at any given moment, but I'm sure any pilot with enough time in the air has similar stories. Like I said it's up to you to decide if the instructions they've given you are safe and reasonable before you decide to accept them, and if they become unsafe or unreasonable at any point you need to let them know and begin working to correct the situation.

[–]theodrixx 1 point2 points ago

Shit's amazing. I'd really like to know more.

If you happen to know someone who can give detailed information on working in air traffic control (or if you are one such person yourself), you should get them to do an AMA.

[–]socal82 2 points3 points ago

[–]theodrixx 1 point2 points ago

[–]red359[!] 1 point2 points ago

Which bee is more at fault here? Some would say that incoming bees should have the right of way and the outgoing bee should have yielded. But look at how the incoming bee is landing. All the other bees are flapping their little wings to control their decent, but the incoming bee isn't flapping at all, its wing are unmoving and its clearly coming in way too fast. The outgoing bee may have failed to yield, but the incoming bee's speed and lack of control were the primary factors of this accident.

[–]jf2l 1 point2 points ago
