A Bad Day For KJFK Ground Controller

I received the following from a friend:

Here is a funny episode with a JFK ground controller and numerous
aircraft taxiing on the ground. Ground control at busy airports
like JFK is the busiest and most complex position in the tower.
There can be a hundred different taxi ways and most of them are
crossing runways or very close to it. One wrong turn by an
aircraft can lead to disaster or just a nightmare like this sound

So you can follow the action, there is an airport diagram available

Talk about needing situational awareness!!!

Think about this guy at home, when his kid wants to go to the
bathroom: "Roger, left turn out of the bedroom, right at the third
door, hold short until company vacates the number one position."

If you listen closely, it appears that one of the pilots failed to
follow the controllers instructions, and that resulted in the loss of
orderly movement on the taxiways.

Imagine trying to control a plethora of airliners on a myriad of
taxiways each operated by personnel for whom English may be a second
language. It's a wonder there aren't more runway incursion incidents.

That serves as a good reason to never fly into JFK. Good God.

Here is a funny episode with a JFK ground controller and numerous
aircraft taxiing on the ground.

Coincidentally I was listening to JFK Clearance Delevery/Ground last night.
The controller was one of the rudest I have ever heard, not so much in words
although there was some of that; but by the tone of his voice.

That isn't rude, that is just a typical NYC accent! :-)
