This is the full quote of what Foxy said,
Take this opportunity to thank DUBAI APP for making the new challenge we now face in the Centre run smoothly with the departure and arrival headings for deconfliction. BZ
And so in response F(u)-K-D responds with a load of rubbish about how we at the centre are feeling sorry for ourselves and how we don't understand how difficult the UAQ para dropping, OMR50, DARAX inbound-outbound situation is for DB as well. What planet is this guy from. Foxy was actually giving you and your colleagues a compliment, thanking them for making the best of a bad situation by creating an unofficial race track pattern around MAXMO the day before yesterday by using headings for all departures and arrivals.
We know very well how hard this situation is for you guys and we sympathise (well I don't sympathise with F(u)-K-D, cos he doesn't deserve any sympathy after his misguided spray) with Dubai Approaches predicament when it comes to this whole MAXMO debacle. It isn't a "my life is tougher than yours" competition, and Fox was never making it that. If he had been wanting to do that, all he would have had to do was bring up the fact that we have one line to Tehran that all ATCO's and Assistants between the two centres share, and which Tehran hardly ever answers and when they do it doesn't really help much anyway. But that is not what Fox was on about, he was pointing out the problem this area has created, and complimenting Dubai Approach on the help that they have been able to give us.
Moral of the story Foxy and DD, never give a compliment, cos this is the response you will get.
