This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

ATC probably does this on purpose to make estimating turns easier/more predictable rather than trying to time staggered takeoffs and approaches amongst each other. That place must have a fuckton of holding and departing traffic at all hours…
