Yes. But have you tried to get an airport slot there recently? On short notice maybe? At seven in the evening on a weekday? In a private aircraft?
Yupp. Did work out. Besides, when I file to EDFE and the wx is bad, IŽll go into EDDF which will be my alternate. The only prob you have then is to get out again.

But your reasoning is right and that is what I said for years: putting all that **** onto crews (CFMU/SLOTS/Special regulations) just adds pressure, that can lead to the wrong decisions.
I donŽknow how many times I had to worry about that stuff in addition to safe conduct of flight - guess you all know that.
