Not having a go at props just a question or two
max1,
From an ATCers perspective would it make much difference (or negligible) if props and jets went to respective airports. For example PH seems to be one of the worst. But you have a look at the variety of types in and out and think "well its no wonder!".
How come we get make max speed to the field shortly after Top of Descent? Or worse - min speed. Having said that max speed seems to be the one that gets handed out the most.
With regard to the feeder fixes I usually manage to get there within 0 to 0.2 of a minute. At what point would the controllers like to know 0.4 0.5?
When you ask for say 220 knots do you want it asap (as in manually intervene V/S speed brake etc) or just slow as the FMC would do it?
Just a couple of things I'm often wondering..
