Thank you so much for your translations! It put a on my face!

I think it is a great idea for the pilots to come visit the ATC centre! Not just a visit but to sit for at least a hour and listen out on frequency during peek periods (which unfortunetly is round-about midnight)

I think a lot of our flying friends are unaware of all the restrictions/limitations that are put on ATC. Like the most recent instruction from the GCAA that we have to provide 15nm spacing on final for 30R if aircraft (parked on the northern side) requires full lenght departure. So if you are number 3 in sequence you are looking at a whooping 45nm final......

So..... bye-bye to the following requests:

* high speeds
* own speeds
* direct Lovol
* opposite runway landing
* can we slow down
* ect, ect, ect....

I think it is great to have a forum like this where we can chat and have more of an understanding of each others work
