Hard for lay people to figure out root cause. You think there would be the latest control technology being used extensively to keep runway accidents from happening. Unfortunately, I don't think that's the case. Can anyone in that industry shed some light on this?

Anyone notice something about the voices of the air traffic controllers??? Interesting

Trip 7 Tiger would be better but here is what I see (as a once certified ATC).
The ground controller fricked up. She cleared the SWA flt all the way across the field, including crossing an active runway. She should have had the SWA hold short of crossing 4 and then made visual confirmation at a minimum that 4 was clear to cross.
There was way too much time for the situation to change for the SWA aircraft to taxi that far.
Just my $.02 worth. I only controlled airspace over battle fields and on temp airfields. Never wanted to be the ATC guy in a tower.
