Progressive Taxi
Progressive Taxi is a detailed taxi routing given by ground control where the controller provides step-by-step directions to an aircraft, guiding it from its current position to the destination (runway or gate). Pilots can request progressive taxi at any airport, and it is particularly useful at complex airports or when unfamiliar with the aerodrome layout.
- Pilot request: "Request progressive taxi"
- Controller provides turn-by-turn directions as the aircraft moves
- Available at all towered airports — no special equipment required
