PIK

Heard at PIK while holding for departure about 5 years ago.

KLM 777 training, making some fairly wide right hand circuits on 31.

RSC177 Sea King inbound from the north at about 500ft, to land on the H to the north of the runway.

KLM calls downwind at about the same time as the Sea King. ATC tells KLM to call on final and the Sea King to report final to the H. After about 30 seconds of silence a concerned KLM calls up asking for the circuit position of the RSC as they cannot see him. ATC reply "He is downwind also but will be coming inside you".
