then said, "what kind of ground speed are you showing on that tomahawk" tower said 100 kts, the airliner goes, 100 kts over the ground! Oh boyyyyyy.. That reminds me of an incident during my instrument training. We were flying an ILS into my home airport in a C172. There was a moderate head wind, so my ground speed was only about 65 kts or so. A 737 had arrived at the runway and called ready. We were still about five miles out so I was expecting the controller to clear the 737 for takeoff. Instead, the controller instructed the 737 to hold short for approaching traffic.
