3 miles separation is easy.....anyone can do that

You have to use 5 miles and are paid less. I think I'll stick with my level 12

Does Daisetta think we only need 3 miles behind a heavy? That might explain the 5 miles decreasing feed I've been getting lately...

yeah which is what sucks. we're just as busy as other level 12's yet stuck at 11. lame.

but, i'm glad i deal with new orleans approach and not you guys....

What are you talking about? We are awesome! I like some of you center peeps too... there is just so much disconnect between center an approach. Some controllers (on both sides) are bitter and not willing to work with each other... so we all get a bad rep.

Procedural wise, we have very little say in anything. If you ever ask why a dumb procedure is the way it is, the only answer we get is "This is what THEY wanted" but no one ever explains who THEY is...

so much disconnect ??? not what i hear at the center. i hear you guys are assholes. if one guys looks like he's not doing 250 at the boundary you want us to spin him. like i said, glad i don't work in lufkin and i work with MSY approach - they can handle whatever. granted there's old bastards in both areas that are so set in their ways and just bitter.
