<<Did you really only see 2 in your 20 odd years? >>
Yes. I left there in 1992 (or was it 93?) for TC so things obviously changed after that. With multiple conditional line-ups I was trained to be absolutely 100% certain that pilots understood and I never made a mistake in that respect. That's why I post notes on here pointing out bad phraseology - and it's always pilots who say "line up after the landing xxx", not ATCOs. Why do they do it?
