Air safety concerns have escalated after New South Wales incidents at Sydney Airport and related controller staffing shortages. Bloomberg and Japan Times reports highlight near-misses, limited staff, and calls for improved hiring and new tools. Authorities are reviewing operations and training to prevent further close calls.
