You're supposed to get on the radio, pretend you are the Citation pilot, and tell yourself you are good to depart in front of them! If you taxi slow enough, you might be able to make them go around too!
Yeah, her writing is a little out there. My business partner had to work with her on some stuff and say's she's a very nice person FWIW. She may be aiming for Ernie Gann's style and ending up looking a little like Bert's sidekick.


Besides, as a former regional prop trash driver who has not completely forgotten the skill set that enables running on time through an AFU operation ... I've had to go missed twice because I was overtaking jets on approach in IMC ... don't know what T-37's fly like, but if you put a cabin on one and call it a Citation, it does 90 knots.
