It of course stinks that this level of caution is necessary and ambulance chasers ruin everything they get near but it is something all professional pilots must consider, especially before they arrive at their 'destination' employer.



It is disturbing if the tower controller's main objective was to avoid needing to ask ops for a runway inspection.

Great advice for sure
