Anyone would think from the self-righteous indignation here that some of the pilots complaining about ATC delays were substantial shareholders of the airline they work for.
Even the thread's title has an angry red emoticon.
Who cares about an issue which is essentially between the Hong Kong government and the 'mill owners'? You haven't had a pay rise for years, management-flight crew relations have been dreadful since the mid 1990's, new pilots are being recruited on appalling terms and conditions, and the only bonus you get these days is your overtime.
To the Hong Kong ATCO's, I personally prefer 'min clean' from the boundary then twice around the hold, one for the tax bills and the other one for myself.
