Since it appears that he flies off that airfield regularly he MUST be
aware of the way it all works.

As with anything connected to aviation you only get it wrong once

Listen to the audio between the tower and captain Ford on this page:

Ford may have a radio that provides less than readable copy, but the

Getting "hold short of the runway" out of that blathering takes pretty
good ears and a bit of mind reading.
