Often the hardest part of flying into a big Class B airport is finding your way around on the ground. After landing at Washington Dulles, I heard this exchange on the ground frequency.
Hawker: “Ground, Hawker xxx, uh, we’re having some trouble finding Foxtrot”
Ground: “Hawker xxx, where are you?”
Hawker: “We’re at Zulu and Zulu 2.”
Ground: “Go south on Zulu.”
(delay)
Hawker: “Ground, Hawker xxx, sorry, but we still can’t seem to find it.”
Ground: “OK yeah, just keep going, you have another two miles to go.”
