Try more than 15 aircraft. Some guys still think Dubai is some dusty backwater with no traffic.
What exactly is the sector loading in Dubai, do you know? I heard max 8 or something, so forget the "Dubai rocks the boat effect"

you might like to calm down a bit . ever heard of sarcasm to make a point?
Calm as always...Sarcasm? eh yeah, but no, not really. Try to stay focussed and factual, that might help!

yes an extra nm or 3 is an extra delay for the next guy, so when i tell the a/c to turn then he should turn not spend the next 20nm after responding scratching his arse wondering if that call was for him or one of the other 15 a/c in the sequence.
when he is told to slow down he should comply not take 3 reminders to slow down ie slow to 250IAS 20nm later confirm slowing to 250IAS? we are 300IAS confirm you want us slow 250IAS. 20nm later whats your speed? 300ias confirm you want us to slow now? that way we get the 10/20nm etc and you get to land earlier
Why do you guys keep whinning. Write a fecking occurrence report until the problem is solved. Yeah yeah I know your reply its a never ending story etc. Do something about it.

you sound like a person of some experience with all things atc so i'll extend to you the same invite i did to Schnowzer. pm me, organise a time and come to the center and bring your licence so you can show us how its done
Schnowzer & Sandy i'm still waiting for you to pm so we can organise your visits!
You both appear to have years of experience in the ATC field at busy centers and maybe thats the sort of experience we need to have showing us how its done.
Do you want me to replace you???

How many AN12 freighters, AN124's, TU134's and the like are they trying to sequence in the middle of a an RPT arrival rush where no flow control from adjacent sectors or slot times allows everybody to turn up at once
DXB has got aprx 300 daily arrivals right? EK has got aprx 80 modern aircraft, which some of them will arrive a couple of times daily due to short routes etc., plus the odd number of other western build aircraft from several other airlines, lets say aprx 100 (BA, LH, GF, QR etc.), let say a total of 220 western build aircraft. Thats almost 75% of all arrivals then. Where's your problem? The number is probably higher anyway..

As I didn't go to the school of how to be "Gods gift to the world of aviation" as it appears you must have...I will just keep hoping that the acepting unit will take the odd extra mile!
I'm no Gods gift, just professional in my spacing and job.
