The A346 is not allowed on certain taxiways due to its size, but it's usually not that big of an issue unless it's clogged up out there like in that clip.
At first I just thought the hawker was causing trouble but cutting inline, but obviously it was much more than that.
Best phrase from the whole clip (just after the 10 -minute mark):
"And you're where and doin what, short of who?"
I believe the A346 is class V, same class as the 747. Or is it just something special at JFK?
the A346 had a longer wheelbase than the 747, and certain turns it can't make because of that. at least that's the way it was explained to me...
Good 'ol Arnie. He's a well known JFK controller in the LiveATC community, and always entertaining to listen to. You can find many more clips of him on the LiveATC.net forums.Quote:
