Do operators of light and medium aircraft argue today that 'heavy' operators should compensate them for increased wake separations ??

Do jet operators ask for compensation if a light prop ahead means they need more delaying action ?

Do turboprop operators ask for compensation because the jet ahead causes them to slow down on final and intermediate approach ?

Of course not. They just accept that ATC will try and make the system work to its maximum safety and efficiency with the tools and standards they are given to play with. I think it's a false argument.

The problems will be purely operational ones, not monetary.
