I’m still, after all these years, wondering how a ground controller could so great as to become legendary in semi-pop culture. GOAT for sure.

"cause if you follow them to Santo Domingo, everybody behind you is gonna be upset!" xD

London cab drivers were required to have "the knowledge", had to know the city like the back of their hands. Sounds like Steve has it too, probably knows which stall in the restroom isn't being used.. I realize it's easy, like memorizing the New York phone directory is easy.

[@sludge4125]

Yeah, because $175,000 isn’t enough.

[@bennylloyd-willner9667]

I know it's old but I just recently found your channel. If KS would use his retirement to train people at stressful posts of any business, the world would come closer to world peace. Super professional and yet find time to be funny and polite. Great uploads H89SA👌

[@ParadigmUnkn0wn]

He's actually still working at JFK, just as the ramp manager for the airport instead of a controller for ATC. He makes his first appearance at 2:11 in this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZofLnYWHmK2MbbM Seems to be doing well for himself, and most importantly, still gets to yell at Delta Tugs!

Dear KENNEDY STEVE. I heard a rumor that you retired, I have a hard time imagining you; Boxers and T shirt, on the sofa, beer in hand, looking at reruns of "Lassie". Can you please come BACK TO WORK.

[@donnanewmeyer9643]

Steve Abraham's. Just discovered this amazing traffic. Uncle was AA pilot, now know what he was- genius, to follow all this. My dad was GA pilot, had Bonanza. Company plane, died in crash in Anderson Indiana. Sharp approach over gas station. Grass strip no ground control. Winds. By the way any one can tell me 1%?? Rich people alert says it all, doesn't it?

He did NOT retire. 09-01-2017 he transitioned from an FAA-regulated position (ATC) to a non-regulated one (Terminal 1 Ramp Manager) due to FAA age restrictions.

What's all the "American in disguise", "not wearing American colors" bits - is he just poking fun at them for not having the new paint yet, or do they have something that isn't red, white, and blue?

Plane wearing US Airways paint with an American Airlines call sign.

[@FlintF]

Can anyone explain what's happening at 02:57 please? I found out what the "metering" means, but how does it relate to the geometry of the airport? TMIA!

[@wloffblizz]

JFK is an old airport which was never really designed for such a crazy amount of traffic. The taxiways there do one giant loop and taxiing planes sometimes need to circle around the entire thing, so there's really no way to have more than one ground controller -- you need to have one person controlling everything because you never know when you might have to stop someone or turn them around because of something that happens on the completely opposite side of the airport. On places like Atlanta, it's much more sensical to have multiple ground controllers: flightaware.com/resources/airport/ATL/APD/AIRPORT+DIAGRAM/pdf If you look at the taxiway chart, you notice there are two completely separate runway complexes on the north and south side of the terminals; so you can easily have one ground controller controlling traffic on the north side and another on the south side (and they actually have a third one for the one runway WAY south); and that's perfectly fine, because there's no way for the planes different controllers are controlling to ever hit each other.

Mary Elizabeth I’m pretty sure the angry puppy is the DC9. Maddog is the MD-80’s and up. There is a video where he calls a MD83 an angry puppy and corrected it to Maddog saying there is defiantly a pay difference between the 2 callsigns

Flagship is the callsign for American Airlines, Company means an aircraft from the same company, so instead of saying "Flagship follow the flaghsip from the left", he'd say "follow the company from the left"
