LaGuardia plane crash: Runway safety system 'did not alert,' NTSB says - ABC7 New York

The NTSB said LaGuardia’s runway safety system, which tracks surface movement of aircraft and vehicles, did not alert during the fatal landing collision—an important focus of the ongoing investigation. Authorities have released the pilots' identities and investigators remain on site pursuing a formal inquiry. The Newark event, in which a United flight hit a light pole above the Turnpike and damaged a tractor-trailer, underscores how lapses or limitations in approach and surface monitoring can produce varied but serious consequences and may be considered as part of broader safety assessments.
