On the subject of airline policy causing delays, how do pilots feel about being delayed into Hobart because Jet* insist on a straight in instrument approach unless the weather is CAVOK onto R30? I'm not knocking the Jet* pilots as they're doing what they're told, and I can understand why they don't like GPWS going off flying the arc, but by being so restrictive, number two in the sequence can be pushed back to as far as 7 or 8 minutes behind.
