Fourth Sydney Airport Safety Incident Under Investigation in as Many Weeks Sydney Airport's safety record has been a cause for concern for months, with the latest incident – where two Qantas flights were given clearance to take the same route on a taxiway – symptomatic of deeper issues.
The Australian Transport Safety Bureau (ATSB) is investigating its fourth incident at the airport in as many weeks.
The frequency and severity of these incidents raise questions about staffing levels and workload management at Sydney's air traffic control tower.
