BEXIL, I just have to ask, how long has it been since you've plugged in on a TC sector and seen + heard the sector working?
I'm a South TC ATCO and visit your den every couple of months. I think there's a great deal to be learned from it. Maybe management should encourage it more...
If a/c aren't climbed and transferred ASAP overloads will become the norm. There are enough a/c on the BIG sector freq as it is without doubling the number of planes at altitudes. (And yes in this example the sector is already split!)
Returning more to the subject of our colleagues post this will do so little to ease bunching. So long as heavys can increase to min clean speed I don't see it doing too much harm either.
