Submitted by a heavy iron driver…
After landing on RWY 30 the other day I began to taxi to the gate when I noticed a beautiful red fox strolling across the taxiway.
Me: Hey, Ground. Did you know you have foxes here on the airport?
Ground: Oh, sure, plenty of them. I’m surprised you knew it was a fox — most pilots think they are wild dogs.
Me: Well, I’ve been to a bar or two. I believe I know a fox when I see one!
Female Voice: Then I guess you’d know a wild dog, too.
Short Final…
Key Takeaways:
- A pilot observed a red fox on the airport taxiway and informed ground control.
- Ground control confirmed the presence of foxes, noting that pilots frequently misidentify them.
- The conversation evolved into a humorous exchange about the pilot knowing "foxes" (a double entendre) and a witty retort about "wild dogs."
