Slightly off subject, but we turboprops hold at 160Kts. When we are vectored out of the hold controllers never give a speed. I've learned to speed up without being asked, but acceleration is hardly startling and some controllers seem to be puzzled by the almost stationary return.javascript:smilie('')
Most controllers don't seem to be aware on the other hand how quickly some turboprops can slow down and go down (and usually both).
