Hopefully the US Metron system to absorb the delays on the ground will fix this problem
That being the case, then what is the status of a published SkyFlow delay (read: ground holding) reports we digest and apply to our operations each day? Are they
advisory only - we do seem to have to hold enroute even when we do wait out the published delay on the ground at the departure aerodrome, and yet (not that I would ever admit to being guilty of this here....
) when the SkyFlow delay is "trimmed" a little on the ground by the operating aircrew we don't seem to get the delays (WRT arriving at SY)...?
To the person who wondered what GIGO is/was = Garbage In, Garbage Out (meaning the system relies upon accurate information to give an accurate answer).
This is a very insightful thread, please keep it up!
