Auto sequencing at 5NM

The new system has a feature to auto sequence planes to Point Merge (NIPAR).
Our biggest problem is weather deviations. This is where all plannings are out and we have to do tactical control for the approach. No day passes without some form of deviation. Then again we are short handed as far as skilled Approach Radar Ctlers are concerned. I for one will not depend on this auto system and depend more on tactical management. It helps me, the pilot and the company. Anyway point noted, will have to wait for the 12th nite and with the 3rd runway next year, its going to be another episode as the consultants for the new airspace design is still being searched for. Cheers brother
