RENURPP - permit my compliments. In one reply you should have reduced most fears of TMP to rubble. In a well designed and managed TMP your type of operation can be advantaged by prediction. Other traffic can be vectored or tracked to intercept the flowed TMP to reduce delays. All operators benefit from the added safety aspect of a managed traffic flow. When traffic conditions are suitable cancellation of a part of the procedure is possible. The default to TMP has additional advantages in the case of RADAR/RADIO failure with predicted tracking and automatic traffic separation that is embedded in complementary SID/STAR design. A new TMP requires a short period of transition to safely embed the various procedures and that demands discipline and patience on the part of ATC and aircraft operators.
To the familiar callsigns herewith - GOODAY.
