I've experienced it once. Into Leeds/Bradford behind a 737 if my memory serves me well. Absolutely frightening. Fortuately the instructor reacted very quickly. We were high and behind and had followed all the ATC delays with orbits and long downwind, it still caught us out though.

Looking back, was an excellent training exercise to increase my awareness more than any book reading could ever do
