I don't understand what you are saying. If the pilot requested an SRA then he is asking for a radar talkdown. That means he has no navaids available to fly the approach himself and it is up to you to get him on the ground. Are you sure it was an SRA he requested? bones bones@xxxxxxx -----Original Message----- From: jhb-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:jhb-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of F FISHER Sent: 15 October 2009 14:48 To: jhb@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [jhb] Re: SRA Bones I gathered he wanted to practise doing the approach whilst I gave him radar cover and help. Seemed to be a bit peeved that I did not answer in the affirmative, never having to do this procedure before. Appart from missed approaches. In fact, this was just after my tower controller disappeared without warning, (a 2 hour newbie, he appeared also without contacting me, very rude). I doubt I will see the pilot again, and if it was me, I would have done an inital practise offline before bugging a controller. Frank
