Re MOR
Hello Mr Antigua,
Unfortunately I see this all too often. There are controllers (only a few thankfully) who MOR pilots because they can - delusions of grandeur. I am a controller and I appreciate any information pilots can give if it can make my life easier and therefore make the sector run more smoothly. I feel mortified when I hear so called colleagues treat pilots like 5 year olds. I'm afraid there is no quick solution to this from your point of view so it may be a case of having to bite the bullet and put up with it.
As far as I'm concerned, I hate surprises so please don't keep a lid on things because of this minority of morons!
