I frequently tune in to JFK ground at the office at the end of my day
(Mountain time zone) to listen to this guy. He's a regular. Don't
know his name but he obviously knows his stuff, and he is usually
pretty entertaining. I've never heard him in this type of mess, but
he definitely has command of the situation. One of my favoites " Jet
