Sh— be wild out there!
Autothrust Blue
Welcome aboard the Washington State Ferries
ULCC stories are wonderful and wild.
This is nuts. Imagine if the lone DCA controller working the tower was attacked. I wonder if mandated 6 day work weeks causing workers being around someone you can't stand for days on end and flared tempers due sleep deprivation and fatigue played a role. Just speculation, but a crazy world indeed.

FAA employee charged with assault after altercation in air traffic control tower at Reagan National Airport
An FAA employee was arrested and charged with assault after a scuffle in the air traffic control tower at Reagan Washington National Airport on March 27.
I had the same thought for connecting flights. There's other airports more suitable for hubs.1. I don't live there, and-
2. Dulles definitely needs some work. They need to make the train work correctly, but...
3. New terminal being built, hopefully that's the first step in making it a much better place.
4. If I'm honest, I'm hearing a lot of "first world problems" in these complaints. I've done that walk. It is not 20+ minutes unless you're 80. I could go from the A terminal to well past the train station in 20 minutes.
DCA does not work. I knew that the first time I flew in there. I know there's a lot of widget folks here, so I may be in the minority here, but I'm wondering what banning the sale of connecting tickets would do to DCA traffic levels.
We would welcome the connecting traffic at the proper international hub down the road
I've taken the metro from downtown Seattle to SEA. I traveled there for surgery and even after surgery don't recall the walk being bad. First world problems.

the biggest lesson here is don’t punch someone married to a lawyer no matter how much they deserve it.

If they were alone who would attack them?

If the controller was alone, there'd be no physical attack. Unless the janitor is in the tower cab screaming at her about vectoring a Dash 8 in front of a 737-900.
