American Airlines pilots refused to be interviewed on tape after taxiing their Boeing 777 across a runway without permission in an incident that forced another passenger plane to abort its takeoff, said the National Transportation Safety Board.
In the JFK incident, American Airlines pilots have refused, on three occasions, to be interviewed if an audio recording was made of the conversation, according to the NTSB, which said it is a long-standing agency practice to make such recordings when necessary for an investigation.“As a result of the flight crew’s repeated unwillingness to proceed with a recorded interview, subpoenas for their testimony have been issued,” the NTSB said in the report.
“This long-standing practice has included numerous past investigations involving commercial airlines,” the agency said in a statement.
