- Best and Funniest Air Traffic Control New York Kennedy Steve. Navigating JFK's Airport taxiways can be a nightmare. It's a very busy airport to fly into. Now you can listen to what goes on behind the scenes with the Pilot and Tower ATC Audio.
Kennedy Steve and Boston John with his "See ya" and "Hasta La Vista" What it would be like on a Pilot's discord server but in real life IRL.
Pilot arguments with Air Traffic Control funniest moments.
See more of my videos on the home page as well as full fights.
Aircraft in this video are the Lufthansa A380, KLM 747, Etihad A380 Virgin Atlantic A330 British Airways 747 landing at LAX. Heard on this video are United, Delta Airlines and regional jets.
"Maintain radio silence" is the most ATC way of telling a pilot to "shut the hell up and let me do my job." LOL
Well i'm sure he responded offline "Alright f*ck you too buddy." At least that's what I would do hahaha
"The airplane was smart enough to get here but getting to the ramp is a challenge." Steve could absolutely torch 'em when pressed.
autopilot only works in the air!
This was hilarious
@@trustmeiknowwhatimdoing3720 lol
😂😂😂
I spat my coffee out when that part came in the video.
"If you're nodding your head, I can't see it sir."😆
He said this as I was reading your quote. So strange.
That got me too🤣
rumor has it Kennedy Steve is still hailing Emirates 205 Super to this day
Sand people which u gona do..
😅
"You want us to follow Lan Chile all the way?"
"Oh I don't want you to follow him to South America but all the way to the runway, yes please"
Ha, made me crack up big time!🤣
Absolute best!!!
😂
Yes, epic !!😂😂
that's my fave.. native NYker loves Steve
"I see you are doing it anyway, so permission granted, I guess..."
It is always better to ask for forgiveness than ask for permission, but I feel maybe that doesn't count when you have an airline full of people at a busy airport
😂😂😂
@@Trains_Travel_NZ well you can do it, exactly once :D
“Ok…so we’ve been cleared to-“
“Fine! Taxi the ramp”
“So…we’re-“
“YES! Taxi the ramp and MAINTAIN RADIO SILENCE!”
😂😂😂 he was done with him
I miss Kennedy Steve. He was the best ATC and obviously loved his job as he could be very serious but also knew how to have fun at times.
Did he get fired?
@@andrewd433 Retired
@@richardlaundon Gotcha, he's hilarious.
@@richardlaundon is that why vids so short now?
Is he retired, at what age? This job at New York without humor, would be insane burn out!!
3:04 "It's not a good plan. It's the only one we've got though"
Gold
"I dont want you to follow him all the way to south america"🤣 that killed me
“Norwegian can’t figure out how to turn into the ramp - he’s working on it. The airplane was smart enough to get here but getting to the ramp is a challenge.” 😂😂😂😂
I could never have worked next to Kennedy Steve. That man would have had me laughing my ass off all day - I’d have got nothing done haha!
Steve was a beast on the mic !
He was in total control , former pilots flying into JFK wake up sweating to this day , afraid to fuck up on his shift and frequency !
Is that ATC at the beginning? I recognised his voice and instantly thought ' Oh, these pilots have to get their act together! It's *that* guy!'
Kennedy Steve....if you're ever reading this....thank you. Thank you for not letting planes collide, and keeping everyone safe. I don't know how you kept your sanity.
Kennedy Steve was efficient and effective, all with a remarkable sense of humor. He is legend.
He is not very professional
Eh, he lengthened a taxi for 20 minutes because the pilots had the audacity to confirm turning left and he says to go right just for the heck of it for my company once. Power corrupts
@@Redridge07 For a New Yorker, that's professional
@@Redridge07Ah, I see.. You mean uptight.
@@inventiveowl395 Yeah, people like @Redridge07 expect you to FIRMLY insert a MASSIVE stick up your ass. That way you can assure no humor can be used during anything productive. You see, the type don't believe that you can be highly professional, highly regarded, and damn good all while maintaining upbeat and humorous interactions. It just doesn't compute and that's the reason for the stick. It can reach far enough to engage the "Be that guy" button which accomplishes removing any and all social interaction abilities. :)
"If you're nodding your head I can't see it" Makes me laugh every time
"Jetbluetug1gorightonalphayoutalkveryfast" killed me
That was superb!
I hope Kennedy Steve is doing stand-up comedy shows in his retirement.
He'd have an audience rolling on the floor, while he insults them! 🤣
Allegedly conversation between Frankfurt and a BAflight (Brithish Airways")
BA pilot asked for confirmation of something...
Frankfurt "have you never been to Frankfurt before?:
BA pilot "No, but my Grandfather flew over in 1943, but he didn't stop"...
There's another story that goes similar to this.
An American was traveling to France, and upon arriving, he was fumbling, trying to find his passport. The customs agent rolled his eyes and told him he should have known to have his passport at the ready. The traveler apologized and said last time he was in France, he didn't have to show his passport. The customs agent said that was ridiculous, and France has always required showing your passport. The traveler snapped back, "The last time I was here was in June of 1944 and i couldn't find one single Frenchman to show my passport to."
Hope you enjoyed the laugh, just wanted to return the favor.
No need to read the title or description to know that this ATC guy was at a New York airport. I love it.
Steve is essentially an FDNY kitchen full of fighters busting each others chops distilled into an air traffic controller fielding people from all over the world from different cultures. Brits keep their cool the most with him it seems, probably used to him seeing as it's JFK, lol.
Yep!
"Ya killin' me heah" 😂
‘Well, I don’t want you to follow him to South America…..’ 😂😂
The best one for my 35 year Airline Career:- " Sydney Tow Charlie Zulu Alpha there appears to a Beer can on the taxiway" (Sydney Tower Australia) "Charlie Zulu Alpha, full or empty?".
Every pilot on the ground grabbed the mike but we were too slow.
BTW We were the only Airline in the World that asked Clearence Delivery for a "Green Flight" clearance & we got special priority. (The "Greeny" was the local Hotel ATC & us drank at).
some people in the comments are really upset by the way this guy talks, but for a new yorker hes being straight up friendly with them lol
Americans are kind of known for being crass and or abrasive, but my experiences in New York showed they are on another level
I'm from the UK and I have no problem wit Kennedy Steve.
Right? This whole video is "welcome to NYC!". Lol
@@drd675 American tourists are the worst.
@@drd675They are a unique group even to the rest of us in the Mid-Atlantic region. Only possible rival is New Jersey.
Taxi to the ramp and maintain radio silence. Professional way of saying "Just go and STFU!"
It's like a call center without the mute button... I love it.
Except funnier because if you don't listen to the ATC, you won't make it out alive 🤣
I love when ATC gets fed up and just tells the pilots to shut up
"If you're nodding your head, I can't see it".😅
"Follow the rich people on your right" - picture is of a lufthansa with an Emirates on it's right. Love it.
I was sad to not hear "Earth to Emirates 205 super!"
Also "I deserve ramp pay for all this work" - unironically true. Idk why ramp earns more than ATC.
Lufthansa first is so much more expensive as well lol
No it must have been a private jet like gulfstream or global
He does the "rich people" joke a lot. It's always a private jet.
As far as I know after Kennedy Steve retired from ATC he became a ramp manager.
@@georgeh5075 Lufthansa first is nicer than Emirates first IME.
JFK: nothing like being at a state of the art 1936 airport designed to handle maybe 50 flight each day.
you're thinking of LaGuardia
@@shchorss Yeah, that was a bone head on me.
It's been at least a year since I last listened to Kennedy Steve. Hearing him makes you want to drive/fly over to Long Island just to see all the controlled chaos.
Pretty sure I talked to Steve years ago when flying the Saab out of JFK. What a legend.
Cool!😎👍
He was always worth the price of admission.
Remain radio silence AKA shut up 🤣
ATC is like a FaceBook discussion - if you can serve a sarcastic remark you score
I have an image in my head of this guy just corralling a bunch of unruly tugs from the tower like goats.
This is so NY I thought we were gonna get "EYY I'M TAXIING HERE"
God I love this guy. He should write dialogues for films.
There will NEVER be another Kennedy Steve
A national treasure Kennedy Steve was!
There will never be another like Steve.
Pearson Dave is shaping up to be the successor.
This controller has a funny way of talking with pilots 😄
He's a new yorker that's how they all speak
I don't want you to follow him all the way to South America lmao! That was classic.
Just love the accent of the BA (Speedbird pilot) so calm and professional.
Yuk know, the world is a sadder place since Steve retired! I miss his humour.
“If you’re nodding your head sir I can’t see it” killed me 😂😂😂
There should be a reality show called “Real ATCs of NYC”
That would be incredible. Only reality show I’d watch
Kennedy Steve…… aka
Mr.Sarcasm , gotta love him. 👍👍👍👍
You know you've watched too many ATC recordings when you can recognise their voices!
This is gold. It’s like you you stuck Lois C.K. in the tower. 😂
I understood about -10% of this but still hilarious
Kennedy Steve was great. I love pulling up some of the old videos to get a laugh.
Kennedy Steve is a legend
"Maintain radio silence" 😂🤣😅😂🤣😅
"I can't read your lips from here." Classic Kennedy Steve!
“Getting to the ramp was a challenge”😎🤣
He sounds and talks like somone from the "sopranos" lolol, almost expected to hear him say" You're gonna get whacked if you make that turn" lolol
That voice is none other than Kennedy Steve😊
Knowing very little, this was still amazing lmao
Loving this. 🤣I miss the days of being able to put on the headphones early on the plane and tune to the channel to listen to this kind of conversation... if that is still possible when flying, someone please let me know. Cheers
Get a data plan on your phone & only turn airplane mode on once the plane gets onto the runway.
There are live streams of most major airports on liveatc, just Google it.
during flight, you'll have to look for flights with wifi onboard. Theyre overpriced though so it's better to select the few who offer free wifi instead.
Omg, Steve is SAVAGE! :)))
I get it!
Being an ATC is like herding toddlers….I can do that😂😂😂
The man, the legend. Kennedy Steve!
The dialogue is another language so cool 😎 extremely intelligent to listen to.
Yes you want us to follow Lan Chile all the way....
Oh i dont want you to follow him to South America but all they way to the runway, yes please , follow him :D :D :D :D
Legend has it Emirates 205 Super is still trying to respond.
I wish I could hear this convo from my jump seat 😂
He was on fire that day 🤣😭.
Please add a pause or a small audible signal to identify different clips.
Reminds me of an SFO controller years ago. Traffic 11 O clock probably John McEnroe in a 152.
The tug exchange got me 😂
Friggin New York controllers, hilarious… I love how they mix humor in with direction and clearance
I love Kennedy Steve!
God I love Steve.
These pilots makin me nervous to fly again 😂
Sounds like Howard Stern! Hilarious but gets it done.
Came here to enjoy the sharp wit. Well, the recording is funny.
This happened to me with Qatar, runway wasn't clear and he was asking which taxi lane you have parked. 😂
That last one cracked me up for some reason
O'boy,,, how can you be so fast & slick, I guess some people are blessed, & they want to automate everything, they will kill the fun.
Dang! These videos are good! 😂
I miss Kennedy Steve. He was great
How come the Brits manage to do the Same , but in Such a Professional way and with Perfect English !
Flew B 727 / 707 / 777 and DC 8 into JFK .
Started in 1988.
Hong Kong airport too, even clearer actually
Great stuff!!
Love it!
This is priceless 🤣🤣🤣
Tower: uuh, how's Miami?
Pilot: Hehe
"Taxi to the ramp and remain radio silence" lol
Love Kennedy Steve.
"you're nodding your head, i can't see you"😂😂😂 epic
0:49 Follow the rich people. XD
The Aussie or Kiwi saying “I know” with the opposite tones of American English has provided an excellent example of these dialects might not be mutually intelligible.
Follow the rich people...love it. Sarcasm at its finest/
Not sure there are many facilities that he could get by with that. All have quality assurance offices and tape talks. Most facilities are real sticklers with phraseology.
It appears there more lax on the ground Taxing communications at Kennedy.
There’s different controllers for takeoff and landing.
And the other people taking care of the Ramps
Why Im constantly thinking on Cabe Johnson when listening to Kennedy Steve? XD
He was the best ever.......
Benefits of being ATC at one of the busiest airports in the country
I miss Kennedy Steve.
My favourite was conversation between a BA captain and an a LH captain whereby the BA captain said, "because we won the war".
Kennedy Steve reminds me of Cave Johnson from Portal 2!
Taxi to the ramp and maintain radio silence :D
Kennedy Steve sounds like the baseball commentator from the film Major League.
