Can somebody in ATC explain why we continuously get the sort of handling we've had in the last 2 days?
1. Approaching MANGO, 280 knots, FMS says landing time 44.
Approach controller: Track Direct Limes.
Landing time now 42
5 miles later, reduce to 230 for sequencing
Landing time back out to 44
10 miles later Turn left 290 for sequencing Reduce to 210
Why were we ever given dierct Limes in the first place?????
2. Approachng Siera. Given Siera 6 C arrival - long one.
After tracking to Borda for about 8 miles - Track direct Murry
Call Approach at Murry. Track direct Limes.
Next transmission just leaving F120: Reduce speed to 220 knots!
Can somebody explain the logic going on there in those two cases? Or is there no logic???
