Taxiing, the hardest part of going into B airport?


201er

Recommended Posts

I was taxiing badly at Charlotte Douglas one time and after about three wrong or missed turns I finally had the FBO in sight.  Ground told a Baron behind me to follow the Mooney to the ramp to which he replied, "Only if he doesn't make another wrong turn".  I was too chagrined to protest.  Now have Safe Taxi on my 696 and it is magic!

Two weeks ago at Mesa (AZ) Williams-Gateway airport (KIWA)...a former military base...instructions coming out of the FBO were:

 

Runway 30L at Kilo, taxi via H B V A K and hold short of taxiway B on Kilo....

 

I guessed at the taxi instructions, got it messed up, and ground said..."I'll give you progressive."  The good news is that the Allegiant MD80 behind me also messed up his taxi instructions (which were a bit different) so I didn't feel as stupid....
