I have been lost on an airport. In my airplane my butt is about two feet off the ground. I have better perspective standing up. So, I can understand getting lost on a taxiway in a fog. Some people ctitique the United pilots, but I can understand their situation.
In fact, it sounds like the male United pilot understands exactly how bad things are and is ummm.. "highly stressed"
The controller is suffering from underwhelming caution. She should have been as scared as the United pilot.
All praise for the pilot of USAir 2998. That guy deserves a medal... just for doing his job! See http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5BvgSS6kBdU
