Area controllers require 10nm separation between a/c, so why on the descent into CPT are we stepped down inch by inch when the guy in front is eg.17nm ahead?
As far as I know, ATC everywhere in SA works with 5nm. Why CPT works so defensively is a question better answered by GFJ.....Maybe they're scared in CPT
