For a person who claims to have experience as a controller, you really have no idea how it works. To say that because 25% of our traffic is Russian built stuff that in many cases is extremely slow compared to the Boeing and Airbus stuff we don't have a problem is amazing. Back wherever you supposedly worked, how many sequences did you do well where you had 1 in every 4 aircraft unable to increase above 200 Kts IAS. If you have a sequence of 10 and even 1 of them let alone 2 of them are AN12's and you have to give 20 NM in trail spacing to Dubai, you will have big problems. Of course you are gods gift, so I'm sure you would manage.

Anyway this thread has run its course and still the two sides of the fence are miles apart. I still feel there are a minority of pilots here, who because they really don't understand the pressures and limitations on the ATC'ers, feel they can continue to belittle the job we do, and show absolutely no respect for the job we do. We will continue to do the best job we can do, and to the pilots on here that appreciate what we do, thanks.
