Sled Driver, thats because jets tend to have a higher max speed.........
10 miles is my boundary, it can be done, is uncomfortable and noisy for pax and higher workload, so not really worth it.
What gets my goat is being placed behind the F50 that is grounding 90 knots in strong winds, when we could have had max speed in punch right into it.
Also appears to be favouritism with the local operators and especially QF.
Is it true ATC gets ID travel with QF? It would appear so.............
