Guess Where?

[Capt Claret]

40 DME, inbound at 295 kias, tracking for straight in ILS, at night.

ATC "reduce to not above 210 kias for sequencing"

Flight idle, full speed brake, descent profile shot to pieces.

On achieving 210 kias, [I]ATC "resume profile speed". :rolleyes:

At least speeding up again helped the profile.

[kellykelpie]

That would have to be Singapore!

[Captain Nomad]

Perth... :8

[ab33t]

umm speed up slow down , hurry up .... too high too low too slow

[Tmbstory]

In my day it would have been Sydney!

Darwin? No that would be "expect the full star" if theres another aircraft within 100Nm both in VMC

[geeup]

Jacksons? :E

[pointyendforward]

Yup, my money's on Sydney :rolleyes:

[The Green Goblin]

Sounds like Darwin to me :ok:

[Exaviator]

Could be any major airport at any major city - LAX and SFO come to mind.:hmm:

[LM82]

My money is on Tullamarine (Melbourne)

[AerocatS2A]

Haven't looked at the other posts yet. Is it Perth?

[Checklist Charlie]

Our lives would be truly dull without the entertainment and skill challenges provided by the talking traffic lights.

Where is Clarry?

Anywhere in OZ

:ugh:AUSTRALIA:ugh:

[Nose wheel first]

I'm going out on a limb here ..... Cairns or maybe Townsville??? Darwin would be another possibility!!!

[drop bear ten]

Worried about getting a stick shake (again...) are we Claret???

[Van Gough]

Perth without a doubt

[Lookleft]

Or just as you have slowed to 250kts at 10000' they say request max speed! I hand over their problem back to them and just say that we are at 250 and thats what we will be maintaining. Aside from the ridiculous increase in thrust it is not going to save much time anyway. If ATC cant sought it out 100miles out why do they think a speed increase over 5000' is going to help them anyway.

[morno]

Going by where Clarrie is, and also my previous experience in my guessed location, I'd say it's Darwin, :hmm:.

[psycho joe]

Almost said Newcastle, but they would also have included a few orbits over the FAF. :hmm:

Nah, they'd have given him "vectors for separation" well before then...:E

[Homesick-Angel]

.....YMEN..:}

[hardNfast]

Perth for sure

How long til we find out the answer??

[Capt Claret]

Here was I rhinking that this only happens in DRW. Now it seems that it's de rigueur almost everywhere!

[Counter-rotation]

I reckon Darwin - but on second thought, usually it's the track miles (ie STARS, as MattyJ said) that are annoying!

Once you get "reduce speed to not above ___ " you stay that way! And yeah, it makes bugger all difference time wise

CR

(Bugger! You just beat me Clarrie :O )

[redsnail]

Napoli or Ciampino. :ugh:

[Nautilus Blue]

If it had been PH we would have squeezed a RWY change in as well :O.

[goldeneagle]

Where else but the land of the diaspora Pom and Yarpie.
Welcome to Perth.
The road traffic light sequencing (or lack of it) is worse.

[boocs]

Hong Kong for sure!! Or about 20 other cities in China.:mad::mad:
