At busy airports, it is common for commercial aircraft to pass through long and congested taxiways to and from the runway. It can take anywhere between 10 and 30 minutes to reach the runway after departing from the gate. The same can be the case after landing at a large airport. Have you ever wondered how pilots navigate through complex and crowded taxiways? From a passenger’s perspective, taxiing may be a set of random movements, but pilots follow specific instructions while using advanced equipment and other cockpit resources.
