She berated both for not doing as they were told. I think this is the same incident you are talking about.

If anyone can find the ATC clip I would love to hear it again. They showed it in ground school at SKW.

She was unbelievable! Someone said that she is still working! God help us all!
Yea your right. It was a USAir guy that saved the day and refused to takeoff until it was all worked out. Saved many lives with a little common sense.
