What an idiotic facility.

Let's grow the list while we're on the IAH thread hijack:

- Ready to taxi and very near the runway and nobody in line for it, while listening to clearance delivery at a ramp exit spot, who is in the middle of reading a full route clearance for a Citation on the other side of the airport.

- "Pull into the runup pad."
How about...no.

- Just like the 4,000 level off for several minutes on departure, 2,000 feet 25 miles out on the way in, through the thermals and flocks of birds.

- It is deplorable that they have claimed the fix SUSHI when obviously it should be located elsewhere, such as the SF bay area, or anywhere over or near the country of Japan.

It makes sense the N, W, E, S prefixes on the taxiways. Delineates what side of the airport you are on.

Last time I checked, ATL has a messed up ramp scenario as well with ramp frequencies and the like.

Like slowing to 210 knots before you even start your downwind isn't deplorable???

Also the slope of the runways in ATL is horrific. Like riding a roller coaster.

It's all of the picketing!

And maybe a tapeworm.

And the tapeworm is pregnant with twins . . . :eek:

I can't wait until your first tour on the ER (Yes, @Seggy, I said EEEEE ARRRRRE), it's going to be like

"Woooo! What happened to that boy!"

But all airports have four quadrants in which airplanes operate.

If I look at my chart and see that I'm in the bottom left corner of EWR, then I know where I am.

Or in SFO going out to the 28s, I don't need the parallel to start with the letter "E" to let me know that I'm on the east side of the property.

What an absolutely asinine taxiway labeling policy. Twice the syllables on every readback for no reason whatsoever.

Hope it makes a difference for you guys. Didn't seem to phase our bean counters.

Because your bancounters think they're just running an airline. You have a premium for a lack of labor discord and when the natives get restless, they're going to learn that you're not happy little LuvSoldiers
