If they ever need a volunteer to taxi around a virtual plane, getting in the drivers' way, let me know.
They actually had a pretty neat scripting system. You could click a starting point, ending point, and a midpoint. The system would figure a reasonably optimal route throught the taxiway network. Planes would yield to each other and even to vehicles if the vehicle forced the issue. There were magic spots on the end of the runway that if you took the path to those, then the airplane would continue with a take off, fly around for 10 minutes and come back and land. It wasn't perfect, but from a ground vehicle perspective it looked really convincing.

A scientist claims in court that the reason he ran a red light is that, due to his speed, the color was blueshifted till it appeared green. Needless to say, the charges of running the red light were dropped and he lost his license for speeding excessively.
