  1. Not supposed to make 90 degree turns at 30 knots, 10 knots is normal. Either landed long (160 knots normal for this type) or pilots did not get the plane’s speed down by the time they had to enter the turn. The last exit is not a high speed exit for this runway so they have to slow down a lot to make the turn. Costs fuel and a little time to accelerate back to normal taxi speed.
  2. Train spotting, and plane spotting, has nothing to do with what you ascribe. Skilled mechanics keep them running. Takes a bit of focus to develop the skills and knowledge to do so. Same for understanding the operating costs of a business so that it is run well. Same for managing a budget….
