I wonder what is happening in Japan and its dedication to quality and safety.
First a JAL plane trying to take off without permisson in Sapporo, then some controllers telling two JAL planes to land at a closed runway in Haneda, then a driver crashed a speeding commuter train into an apartment building near Osaka. And now an ANA plane trying to take off without permission in Komatsu (a large coastal city on the Sea of Japan). And they all happened within a few months. What's going on?
I read about the incident in a news report not related to it on the Daily Yomiuri newspaper. So it is only briefly mentioned in one sentence:
I wonder if anyone know any more about this. According to ANA's April schedule, the only Komatsu flights operated by Air Nippon are 737-500 services to Sendai and Fukuoka.

Last month (i.e. April), a plane operated by Air Nippon, an affiliate of All Nippon Airways, also nearly took off without receiving permission from air controllers at Komatsu Airport, Ishikawa Prefecture."
