Third world ATC; talking fast & controlling your aircraft in the style of a trucker operating a CB radio does not make you a good controller.

have to agree with dontdoit that JFK ATCOs do, at times, seem to have watched too many aviation movie dramas
.


How about alerting a full A346 that a B773 captain has entered the departure runway accidentally?
Does that make a good controller?

Or wait, let me guess he just got lucky.
