CTMS Delays Sydney

The last couple of days airlines have had CTMS delays into Sydney affecting their operations down line plus passengers copping delays and missing connections.

What terrible weather conditions have caused this? The ATIS quoted ILS approaches. The weather was not hugely challenging. The thing of note was that PRM approaches were not being used.

I thought the whole idea of PRM was to increase the traffic flow during ILS approach weather. Sydney ATC seems to have forgotten them. Or is it just too hard for the darlings.

Lucky they are not having industrial action in support of their dispute with their employer. Just think of the delays if THAT happened.
