Got a question (and quietly hoping it's not a dumb one - the constant reluctance of SLF/attorney status here).
When the local controller says, "you got [at] Kilo?" -- does that not sound and read in reports like a question to UA 384, and not permission to taxi onto Kilo, just a question about location - but then the aviators respond by turning onto Kilo?
The question I'm teeing up here seems to follow from the CA reportedly stating he lost Situational Awareness.
