I was in the crew lounge yesterday morning between flights when I saw the report on one of the news channels. My first thought was what the heck was the local tower manager thinking when he decided to staff the tower with ONE controller? Something like this is almost inevitable with only person in there - at night, with almost nothing going on.

The guys are right about "uncontrolled" landings. It's no big deal, and in fact is the most common sort of landing in aviation - by a long shot.
