Mad_joke: sorry to say, but that is simply not true. Don't ever mistake the full STAR for what you will actually fly. Point Merge is linear holding, WHEN REQUIRED.
Just 'cause you fly an antique doesn't mean you arrive ahead of those who have invested in a modern fleet. If you want effiency you should see our curved approaches, rolling wings level at 2nm final. Only available for approved operators (that can fly to RNP AR standards).
So if you ever find yourself in a machine with GNSS and RF capability, then you might land ahead of other traffic without that capability. At OSL we adhere to best equipped, best served. Not the other way around.

Merry Christmas
