Good on you getting Kennedy Steve in this. He's the GOAT.
I recognized his voice immediately without even seeing his face.
It's his fault that I even learned the aviation language. I wanted to know what he was saying so I could understand the jokes. Sure enough, the more I learned, the funnier they got. :D Thanks to him and my need to understand, I know what they're saying. :)
There are a lot of Steve's jokes that I love. His "Face the front, sir" is in the top 5, along with "Ground?" "...Plane?"
My favorite has to be when he told an airbus to wait for a single engine Cessna to go by before it could taxi, and issued a calm warning to the airbus, "caution: propwash." :D
Once I learned the reason why this was funny, I about died laughing.
I'll listen in to my local international airport on LiveATC. I've come to recognize the voices, but I don't know anyone in that tower personally. I wish I did. There's one guy who's voice and personality are pleasant to listen to. I'm always happy when I catch him by chance when tuning in.
A pilot I know told me that my dream of flying wasn't dead due to my age and other factors of life. I could still fly. So, for the first time in my life, getting my pilots license became an achievable reality. I've been in ground school for a couple of months, and I am learning so much. But there is a TON of information to learn, so this is going to take a long time.
In studying, I've also learned bits of what ATCs endure, and It Is ROUGH on multiple levels. My God, how they deal with all of that, I have no idea. I'd crack on day 1.
I already respected them due to the nature of their job, but that respect level went WAY up.
That is a job I could NEVER do even in my wildest dreams. It truly takes a specific type of person to become an Air Traffic Controller.
I'd much, much rather be a pilot.
