So, we are landing in some BFE airport with a tower. We are cleared to land and we touch down. As we are rolling out I an not slowing because the FBO is at the end of the runway.

Just then tower says, hold short of intersecting runway for landing traffic. I am like WTF. Nothing on ATIS about LAHSO and if there was our company regs say we can't do LAHSO.

So, I get on the brakes and hold short. At no time was it dangerous or a problem slowing down.

However, I was pissed because this happened. All the what IFS start going thru my head.

At the point I was to tired to say something to tower.

Has this ever happened to you guys?

"Tower, why don't you give me a call at xxx-xxxx"
 
LOL, that would have been great:)

I do remember where it happened now! It was Youngstown YNG.

They might have thought you were at a resonable taxi speed. If it was a true LAHSO you can decline it. U should call the tower supervisor... Clear up thoughts in your mind and make sure they are on the same page.

Couldn't you "unable"?
 
Could have......it would have caused a cluster. The C152 would have to go around and stopping was no issue for me.

I should have and poured on the power! mUAHAHHA. Or not:)

From my POV I had just touched down and started rolling out when I saw this dude and then tower told me to hold short.

If I don't have to haul on my brakes I would be happier.

I was carrying on demand cargo and I really think I am burning more $$ per hour than the 152. Besides tower man should have seen the conflict coming and have spaced us differently.

And I should have listened a little better to the radio to get a picture of what is going on at the airport.

You can deny the LAHSO and should have. THe last thing you need to do on the landing roll is accept a LAHSO clearance. If the controller has a prob with it, ask to taxi to the tower to talk about it. That shuts them up every time

So you landed 14 right (as in, correct...there is no 14R, 14L...just 14)?

What the hell were you in that you couldn't hold short of 5/23? The Space Shuttle?

If you landed 5 then okay...that's kinda tight...just a bit

I don't think I've ever heard anyone issued a LAHSO there...
