I was listening to some [REAL ATC] MD-80 DELTA CRASH at LaGuardia Airport and noticed something just after 8:41. My question isn't about the accident, but actually about a request to the LaGuardia Tower from Tug1 (or Truck1, it's not clear, although the CC calls it Tug1 it sounds like Truck1) where the tug asks "Tug1 at company, we can cross Papa?"
I understand that the term company is used during ATC communications to tell one plane of a company (such as American Airlines) that they are talking about another airplane from the same company.
But how can a Tug/Truck be referring to a place as company?
