[Sarcasm]: I'm sure an AOA sensor would have saved the day!
[/SARCASM]Actually I think the Avidyne has a AOA display.

LOL in FAR theyll have you at 2600 10 miles out, better make it nice and slow then or you will wake the cattle. The approach guys there are a interesting bunch with their logic, I can think of several other stories involving them that I havent seen anywhere else. They'll make a Cessna do a short approach for traffic not even at the outer marker yet.
I've had many go-arounds because Mr. Student Pilot or Captain Cessna gets pokey on the rollout, annoying at a charlie or delta because I often could easily make it, almost could think of it as a LAHSO if a light plane, but when tower calls go around, I go around...

I fly a 190, and I don't seem to remember ever having a problem doing this, but like you said, it's usually 180 to the marker, not 5 miles. I'm on a trip right now and it's a nice day, I'll give it a try if not given a speed otherwise.

They guy/gal who decides to slow their aircraft without saying anything to ATC. This might be fine in Fargo (nothing against Fargo, loved the movie) but when 20+ aircraft are behind you, and spacing is predicated on you not slowing cause "I heard you tell the last guy short approach so I was setting up for one" or any other excuse, causes a massive chain reaction. I've seen this day in and day out lately and some of the chain reactions I've seen just this week were downright dangerous.

The CA of the PSA CRJ200 in CLT who rolled his left main into the grass turning left onto G taxiway from M and then proceeded to come within a foot or two of rolling the right main into the grass turning on to RWY 23 from G. You have to be a special kind of stupid to do that in a CRJ.

I nominate little Dougie Parker for the tool of the day...who can't focus on his own operation....but wants to go after a competitor. The stock holders have to LOVE that.
Great pic from another web site.....what a dick.

The pilot at LAX this afternoon who didnt like AeroMexicos "slow" taxi. Called them "Tacos" and advised them "we use 10-9s here in the United States!".
Not sure who said it but there was a VA and a SWA jet behind them.

Wow. What time was that? Might be worth digging through the LiveATC archives for that one!
