The approach controller is dealing with high-speed jets inbound
The controller could tell them to slow down. After all that is what he/she is there for - controlling.

Reminds me of the Canberras operating into and out of Baik in the 70s. Had to do a high speed run down the runway before pitching for a circuit and landing. Don't they teach RAAF pilots how to do a straight in approach.

I am sure the RAAF could consign high speed approaches to the remote bases that we have built for them in Northern Australia.
