In Australia dawdling on taxiways is the order of the day compared to the U.S., Canada, Asia

Still living in the Tiger Moth walking pace days.

Guys, you’ll trigger all the zoomers who meow on guard.

Whilst speaking of things slow…. How about a shoutout to the VA drivers given max speed to the field yet everyone behind them get profile, then 250, then bring it back to 220 because they didn’t wind it up. Here’s a thought! If ya not gunna put the pedal down, just say unable, and that your happy to join the back of the sequence thanks. Not all of us are building twin time. :)

Who cares? They're DEAD! It isn't an Ambulance!

I think rodney was being metaphorical, not literal, malcolm.

Thank you Leady. There's always one dullard isn't there.

Ahh, the new generation of all knowing pilot skygods of Australia rises again, coming to an airport accident near you.

A long time ago I worked for an outfit that paid a base salary plus a revenue mile rate. Not too many time wasters in that operation. Paying block hour overtime and expecting OTP? Pigs may levitate.

Just tell me again what is wrong with taxiing at 30kts and not holding every competent person up? :ugh:

Hook up that caravan Delta! The highway awaits.

Well taxiing slower might give more headspace to prevent a runway incursion or a wingding when parking at a bay.

As we are all aware there is a lot of training happening with generally less experienced students so then slowing things down cannot be a bad mitigation.

I’m not saying you park on the bay doing 30kts FFS. And what possible runway incursion could you have on a parallel taxiway 🤦‍♂️

I like that we can argue about literally anything.

Yep - being anonymous on a forum brings out the worst in people.

Wonder if anyone here would have the guts to ask someone in the terminal face-to-face about something so petty as their taxi speed.

Exactly this. The Ejet starts to shudder approaching 18 kts but sorts itself out after 20 kts. Don't know whether it's nose wheel design flaw or some kind of resonance, but once you break through 20 - 21 kts, the shuddering stops.

Absolutely zero because those around would just shake their heads at the shear stupidity of such a question.

I have seen people joke bout slowing down because of block overtime but I have never seen anyone actually do it. Does it really happen?
Can anyone explain what that is about? Is it a private message between incels? Like a code to show solidarity?

Another pathetic thread full of self appointed aviation hero’s. Now they are cracking down on taxi speeds. Got to be taxiing at 30kts to be deemed proficient. We really are lucky to have such oversight and thanks for bringing it to our attention on pprune.

Thankfully their one route out of Sydney keeps them off Tango down to 34R :}:}
