Those 757's aren't too flash either... used to get sick of having to slow down for a Speedbird doing 140kts at 15D... controller saying stuff like "er... no speed control"...
Yeah but thats cause the cabin crew are probably 5 mins away from a CAT payment or a long day payment!
250kts to the marker is easy ...its just hard to get back to 130kts by the fence
Mind you they bloody well make you do 220kts till about 7 miles at CDG (well I did that to beat a froggie B'Stard who would have got No 1 if I hadnt )
