I hear ya, I just thought ATL was easier to get into operationally. Personal best in DFW was 5 changes in one arrival.

Do you know something I don't. I would love a base here. I can see my neighborhood on the diagram.

If you saw that view you should have been wondering "which way will they want me to turn on the go-around," or "I wonder if full slaps, full speedbrakes, gear down, idle thrust will get me down in time"! (I would opt for the go-around...just my own "personal viewpoint")...And ATL handles traffic way better than DFW...

That would be a piece of cake for New and his trusty DC9. He could even be stabilized at 1,000'.

No, for Knew, the world would rotate DFW so he wouldn't have to turn. Cleared for a straght-in Mr. Knew.

About five to six years ago they transitioned to computer assigned arrival runways. It has reduced that to a; "Hey you want 17C?"
