Wow

I am a retired airline pilot. I've flown into and out of JFK more times than I can remember. I've been in the control tower many times, and had controllers in my jump seat many times. The toughest job there, is ground control. There are so many taxiways, they go through the alphabet twice. Pull up the diagram of the airport, and you will understand.

6:15 "You guy should come up here one day." Ehhh I thought I was behind you....

LOL

Iv'e had days like that, "NK435 your number 25 for taxi", (pilot) "say nature of delay". I wanted to through his flight strip in the trash.

@ 6:55 JFK Ground: "Jetblue 144, you an inbound or an outbound?" Jetblue 144: "Inbound to Whiskey" JFK Ground: "I told you to go where you are?" Jetblue 144: "Exactly"

I am training for this position in 20 minutes in VATSIM. DAL_GND

Yeah, that was some funny shit....lol

It was humorous enough when ATC said that, but now that you mentioned if that was Peter Griffin took it to a higher level!! I can just imagine Peter standing in the control tower saying that! LOL

"You guys should come up here one day; you'd enjoy the show!". -ATC ...classic!

This guys and idiot! He now works at Islip and try to avoid him when I can, never has a good day, but in his defense they work some of the busiest airspace in the world, couldn't pay me to do his job.

You are able to do every thing ..... at 2:44 that was every funny

It's JFK ground, one of the hardest ground positions in the world.

Doesn't JFK have a ground radar or even paper strips? How can't he know whether the traffic is inbound or outbound?

2:52 ..you can't do anything, sir...that plane of yours. LOL Funny stuff. Wish the taxi diagram was clearer.

He probably couldn't handle the traffic at JFK which is why I talk to him all the time now at ISP.

2:33...is that someone belching?

underpaid

What a pain in the ass job haha

I think that If I would have to become an ATC, It would probably be fun at times, but I'm sure that my head would explode If this ever happens, which I'm sure that It does on a regular basis, if people aren't doing what they are suppose to do.

Jet Blue just loves to fuck up everyone's day. They really need to get their shit together!

u cant.. just do.. u cant just do.... this takes so much energy

Man, why is everyone keying over each other. lol I would not like to get into this. whew!

Those ATC's are the ones that keep the airways free because without them those planes would be crashing into each other and most of them wouldn't know what the hell is going on.

Is that Peter Griffin ? ?

Is that Peter Griffin???

"....Youuuu....You cant just do that...."

@mrAlokin84 Its long gone, the only archive transmissions for 45 days.

Gold jacket Green jacket who gives a shit.

lmao poor guy. i feel sorry for him. bet he popped a couple advil after getting that mess cleaned up.

I would like to hear the rest of this transmission. Does anybody know where I can get it on liveATC?

"you are unable to do anything" haha XD

@zuluchicken Really????

@40390576 We do have one, Its not meant to be "ground radar" but its meant to avoid collisions on runways with vehicles/planes that shouldn't be on the runway. do they have one? probably not. so he's doing a hell of a good job.

And I thought 911 dispatching was stressful

I can see why ATC is considered a high stress career! Much respect to them. "You guys should come up here one day, you'd enjoy it, you'd enjoy the show!" Classic

@anush10 hw is 200 ft in the air and can see 100 ft around the twr he cant see them!!!

I like this ATC, he's professional with just a touch of the New York attitude...

I now see the issues ATC has ESPECIALLY with inbound internation (non-english speakers). I alway though commerical pilots get "airport ground" training, so they know how to navigate the airports that they might serve (as regular or as a replacement).

one thing for this guy....look out the window!!!! either that or this guy needs ASDEX ASAP

@Staldren lolll..yeah he was..am sure the turning radius and length of that aircraft posed the problem.

Yeah, respect for them, I like the guys humour :)

Was he referring to the size of the A340-600 at 2:51 ? Otherwise I think I didn't get it.

Great controller!

Jesus Jet Blue Arrgh xD

I think it can happend to all of us at our job. Nobody is perfect. My call on this is like this: Good controller! And to "looseyourself630", why you are talking like somebody who know how the things are going in this job? I'm pretty sure you have 0 experience in aviation(its obvious..by the way how your reactions are) so let us, ok? Thank you sir!

@TracyAndersonFoxhunt There's no one right or wrong so far as I can see, someone cut in ahead of jet blue 179 and he lost his rhythm. And rhythm is everything to these guys

@loseyourself630 lad you clearly dont have a clue. there is literally a few people in the world capable of puttin in a shift at jfk ground. i remember landing at jfk a couple of years ago and the amount of traffic waiting to take off is just phenomenal. Planes are just everywhere!!! To think its an organised chaos beggeres belief!!

he speak´s like Peter Griffin from Family Guy.....New England accent :D

sounds like a Bob Newheart sketch
