    I fly GA out of a fairly busy class C and get intersection departures all the time, as a matter of fact I don't think I have ever been given a full length departure. This happens while larger jets are using full length, if spacing for wake turbulence is an issue I will get a "line up and wait" direction. If I were given full length clearance from ground the poor people waiting behind me would be waiting forever while I peddled as fast as I could to clear the runway after takeoff. There is construction going on at the airport at the moment and when required the tower controllers are offering back taxing to passenger jets to use the full runway if required. I have never waited 40 minutes at a hold short point so maybe my airport is not as busy as the one from the questioner. I get clearance from ground to cross a cross wind runway all the time, I am getting that clearance from ground well before I talk to the tower. For example "taxi via Alpha cross 32, to foxtrot..." . I don't contact tower until I am at a hold short point at the departure runway. That being said, we use the cross wind runway from time to time to land and I always ask the tower if I have clearance to cross the more active runway before we cross even though we were given clearance to land on that crosswind runway, the airport is laid out in such a way that I am on the ground and taxing well before I have to cross that active runway. It seems the controllers assume we are just going to keep taxing on the runway and most of the time do not contact us prior to the runway intersection and to be honest it always makes me a little nervous. Most of the times the controllers just say we have clearance without an issue when we contact them, there is one particular controller that sounds annoyed by this but I don't really care. Better to annoy an unhappy controller than to get run over by a 757.

    I usually listen on a podcast app and I also listen to podcasts and books at an accelerated speed....not 1.7 because my brain is not capable of moving that fast, only 1.3 or 4. First time I listened to you guys here on youtube I thought something was wrong. The music, it is different, the voices, the cadence, all screwed up, are they intoxicated? Did I have a stroke? Took me a minute to figure it out, this was you at normal speed.

      Still auto-tuned for absolutely no reason at all. It's very difficult for an audio engineer to listen to this podcast. Never heard another podcast ever with this issue. Very weird.

    I noticed that you have good-quality videos but the videos are not getting views and subscribers are not increasing. I found some problems with your channel. 1. SEO Score is very low 2. Tag SEO friendly and many problems on your UA-cam Channel. You need to optimize your channel and do video SEO to reach your target audience. Otherwise, if you upload videos to your channel throughout the year, none of your videos will get viral views.
