So I had been working in the operation for roughly three hours-ish at the time of the incident. Typically, I try not to work myself or anyone else longer than two hours. It has just been my experience that after that two hour mark, your mental acuity begins to diminish a little bit because it's fatigue, you get tired.

In my mind, if we are expected to lose radar, there is an operational advantage or nay, a necessity to use a combination of the two to effectively separate aircraft and to ensure that were you to lose radar and radios again, that you're not gonna have a catastrophic event. So all that said to say, yes, you do have a certain way to do it. The way I did it was the way that worked for me.

So they were nose to nose, slightly offset when I saw it. And I expected them to be there just like that because that was the plan. I did not expect them to be at the same altitude. So we're still not sure. There will be an investigation into that. But again, that's not my forte. You caught the error. I caught the error and fixed it before it became worse. The issue was it was unexpected.

Well, me personally, it's not good for your health. That lack of sleep coupled with stress is a killer. It's not good for you. And in my situation, and other people are out on trauma leave, You do have acute PTSD, and you do have situations where you will have a recurring dream about the incident, and then that will make you uncomfortable enough to where you don't want to go back to sleep.
