In OZ the radar standard must exist until the first aircraft crosses the landing threshold. So if you need 5 then number 2 must be at least 5 from the threshold when 1 crosses it. I would expect the tower to send the second guy around if the standard was not going to exist.

We have had APP controllers on the bench for getting 4.9nm nstead of 5.
