    After all the "can a passenger land a plane?" discussions, I think the better question is "could a passenger get the plane to the proper gate at JFK?"

      good thing you'd never have to get the plane to a gate as a passenger. If you as an untrained passenger land the plane then they'll have you park it on the runway and tow the plane elsewhere.

      With JFK if you don’t Know the layout...GOOD LUCK. If you’re an aero nerd you’ve memorized the layout of JFK, LHR. LAX, AND AMS. You’d also be the only one to volunteer to land it if it was that bad of a scenario,

    There are recordings of a few other ATCs who engage in light banter, but none of them are at frantically busy JFK. Steve speaks rapidly but very clearly, and he doesn't waste words. His zingers are brief and to the point. He is professional yet warm, and his courtesy comes naturally, and it promotes courtesy in return.

      His levity must help defuse an otherwise stressful situation. I've never been into JFK (as a passenger) but I can only imagine the tangle of worms that JFK is.

      penwhale I think he meant that the airliner he was talking to was a cheap company that didn't actually own the airplane. Where as the airplanes ahead of him were big name brands that owned the jets. I'm assuming something along those lines. He was kinda referencing the 1% richest people in the world but replacing rich people with rich airline companies.
