Unfortunately we had a terrible air-to-air collision / accident this week. What are some novel improvements in modern aviation that we can implement to increase safety?

I'm not sure there's any technological improvement that's called for. But pretty much the opposite. The air around DC has always been congested with traffic, I can remember people complaining about that when I was a kid. The obvious solution is to reduce the amount of traffic in the air, and I'm not sure there's really any way to accomplish that. You have members of Congress lobbying (well, bullying) for even more flights to be added to National Airport. So things are going in the wrong direction.

So sad

How about we start with DON’T CONDUCT MILITARY AIR OPERATIONS IN THE FLIGHT LANES OF COMMERCIAL AIRPORTS!

Actually hire more air traffic controllers

I had very positive feedback on my interviews for a S&O role but the team hired someone internally. If I interview again for a differenr role, would I have to do all the interviews again or can I use some of the scores from previous interviews. I understand doing RRK again makes sense but what about GCA, googlyness or leadership . Thank you

I've noticed that my coworkers tend to work more on their own than with others, even when they're all in the office. Is this normal?
