Captain Steeeve and Kennedy Steve team up to break down a Royal Air Maroc 787 incident at JFK, where the aircraft was preparing to depart for Casablanca when the crew reported a nosewheel steering issue and became disabled on the runway.

In this episode, a retired airline captain and a legendary JFK air traffic controller explain what’s happening from both sides of the radio: what the pilots are dealing with when a widebody aircraft can’t safely steer, what the tower has to manage when a runway is suddenly blocked, and how airport operations respond when a departure comes to a halt before takeoff.

This isn’t an in-flight emergency — it’s a great example of how one mechanical issue on the ground can ripple across an entire airport operation, especially at a major international airport like JFK.
