quote by strepsils: Radioexcel is making the point that sitting on the runway is neither the time nor the place to be complaining about being asked to expedite, get off the runway then moan (if you must!)

sitting on the runway nobody should be urged to expedite. if the remaining on the rwy was too long, atc can complain once off the rwy. when cleared to land it's your rwy and your airspace to ga if necessary. no unnecessary distraction should occur, as you never know (and you goddam don't feel on the scarebus) if your collegue lands long, crabbed etc. etc.. to rectify situations like that you don't need additional distractions like "i sure would appreeeciaate if you'd leave at the first high speed, traffic already on touch-down...". who will be accountable for a overrun or missing the twy????
in jepps or notams there are indications as how to plan landings and twy's. i agree everybody should try to comply, or get a blame (later), but stop distracting guys during the most difficult phases.
