CPA used to schedule 4 departures from E1,E2,E3,and E4 all at the same time.
Then another airline wanted to push out of S21 at the same time.
For those sports fans who don't know CLK,unless you come up with a very cunning plan involving Red/Blue/Green pushbacks someone HAS to wait.
One CPA driver got extremely shirty with me(swore over the R/T
) when I said about 10-15 min delay your number 4 to push out of that corner.
If it was the UK I would have cancelled his clearance and told him to phone the ATC supervisor for a chill pill.Not in HK.You get no support especially if you're a Gweilo,but the situation was because of airline scheduling and bad airport layout.
Probably still happening.
