So this is kind of open ended, but is there any fun memories from working at the airport you have or wish you could experience again?
At the smaller, regional airport I used to work at, there was just one service road and it bordered the taxiway. If it was a slow night and I was driving the tug on the road at just the right timing, I could line up parallel with an airliner turning onto the taxiway and "race" them back. Our tug tractors weren't that fast and i didn't like breaking the 15mph speed limit but it was a blast and I wish I could do it again. Riding alongside that close to a jet is the coolest feeling ever. ☺
