Mornin all,

I'm a controller at KK and of you want our side of the story then it does slow things up if a/c don't hold right at M1. We are restricted to the size of a/c we can put behind something at M1 anyway and crews not holding right at the bar does cause holds ups now and again.

However, it's hardly a major issue but it does help everyone get to where they are going with minimal delay if we all work as a team.

All of the airlines work really well and hard together with ATC to make KK as good as place as it is and it's only through this awareness and co-operation of the "overall picture" by all on the airport that we can use the runway so effectively. (58 an hour is the record !!).

So let's not moan about one another eh ?
