The names change but the actions are the same. I have had it countless times though out the years. HOU is the worst.

I'm an MCO regular. SWA ALWAYS gets priority there.

Ain't going to work here. I know a few of the controllers and they have been forewarned.

It's just as important for junior pilots (like me) to push for this in the next contract as it is for a senior pilot. It means faster upward movement.

They better go to ground metering 24/7.

They need to do that anyways. Maybe even a DFW style we'll call you system. I mean doesn't their radar see us at the top and bottom of the ramps?

BTW, they need to get a little more standardized anyways. I like the controllers who clear you across 27R and say call signs only please. I think there needs to be a sign that says switch to tower here. Maybe after TOC on the north side and D on the south side. It's a lot of unnecessary "monitor tower on 123.85" while guys are desperately trying to get out of the ramps and people are trying to get in because the ramps got all screwed up.

I'm primed though. I can block the hell out of 121.9 and 121.75.

I think ORD has the best deal to move the most amount of ground traffic... Call meeting 24/7 get your place one line then monitor gound. DFW opens itself to problems of favoritism cause the controller could call only the spots he wants to call.
