The best thing about Kennedy Steve is how chill he is with the foreign pilots. It seems like the majority of ATC’s that get posted on channels like these get frustrated right away. But he always seems to stay so composed with them

Yeah his change in tone when he hears a foreign pilot is great. It’s way better than the arguing you hear between ATC in the US and pilots who don’t speak native English, with US ATC not using standard phraseology.

Like how quickly he adapted the instructions to the Turkish after the initial bad read back.

I noticed that! Steve was a master of communication, and he did it with warmth and wit. I'm sure the pilots miss him.

5:17 Not surprising Flagship didn't get the message in time...Delta 474 appears to be confused @4:26 and tells "company" (most likely dispatch in Atlanta) that Chicago is ground stopped. While Delta dispatch could certainly call Flagship dispatch in Minneapolis and pass on the message, it would take a lot longer than if Delta 474 had just called ramp operations (which is what I think Steve was getting at).

After spending 4 days on a recording and editing binge, it's nice to come onto KZread and hear Kennedy Steve's voice doing what he does best! Thanks H8

A 'Heavy' is an aircraft with a maximum takeoff weight of 300,000 lbs or more. The 'Super' designation is given to the Airbus A380 (MTOW 1.2m lbs) and Antonov AN-225 (MTOW 1.4m lbs).

Well shortened is always used in relation to runway desginations and basically means that you are not going to use the full runway but a "shortened" part because you taxi onto the runway and then take off. "short" is usually used in connection with "hold" and basically means "stop there"

He speaks clearly (personally I like his voice) and he even speaks slower when he notices non-English speakers have some trouble with English. If you want to hear rude and arrogant and stupid: kzread.info/dash/bejne/jIuDsa2KnKjLZdY.html I cannot imagine this happening to Kennedy Steve.
