Just want to clear up any misunderstanding in regards to the thread title it's not meant as a slam but as a compliment.

IAD multiple times, 172, Cheetah and the Mooney. Fantastic service from approach to ground.

The report clearly states that at no point was there a risk of collision. Then of course half way down the page the caption for one of the videos reads: "Three jets narrowly miss mid-air crash"
Idiots.
In any case, Potomac controllers rock!!!

They are a total class act, with a good sense of humor. It's great to watch them work when the wx is poor.
