Mack Tuck, very well said, these guys need to see how 3 mile sep on final really works in LHR before crying about how their licence is on the line every time they release an aircraft. Comments by "My Hands Are Tied" are the sign of burn out in an ATCO. CDG FRA and LHR make DXB look like a bunch of scardey cats. No doubt there will be the usual cries of how pilots don't do as they are told but the fact remains DXB is NOT busy.
