or we'll verify Mode C and get rid of you once you leave two thousand (i.e. through 2,400ft - more suitable for mediums).
If I remember correctly, though, isn't the GA stop alt for 27R 3000 ft?

So I'm in a BPK departure off 27L, in a 757 (and thrust reverser inop on a positioning flight so full power takeoff in a light aircraft ). I get to 2,400 and you guys hand me over to Radar.

At about the same time the guy on short finals to 27R goes around, and goes up to 3000.

A bit far fetched perhaps, but is there still not scope for a potential loss of separation?
