You're speculating just as I am, no? All I'm saying is that this is more than the usual near miss that's unnecessarily hyped in the media. I trained as a controller at YEG and worked live traffic, my interpretation of it is based on what I learned.
The pilot saw planes on the runway and was told that runway is clear. How that is being glossed over is beyond me. It seems pretty clear that I'm not talking about the typical scenario where a plane is cleared into position and the lander continues the approach, which is not anomalous.
Again, I'm not trying to blame anybody or conclude the investigation, I just think this was an extremely serious incident that shouldn't be downplayed.
