I just flew from KATP to KMYR (Tampa to Myrtle Beach) and while getting ready for the approach I got this strange ATC message:
(Callsign) Turn Right Heading Zero Eight Zero vectors to the ILS approach for Runway One Eight at MYRTLE BEACH International Turn Right Heading Zero Eight Zero Turn Right Heading Zero Eight Five Turn Right Heading Zero Niner Zero Turn Right Heading Zero Niner Five Turn Right Heading One Zero Zero Turn Left Heading Zero Eight Five Descend to Two Thousand feet Expedite your Turn Left Heading Zero Eight Five Turn Left Heading Zero Six Five Turn Left Heading Zero Seven Zero Turn Left Heading Zero Six Five You are One Zero nautical miles of MYRTLE BEACH International airport. fly heading One Five Five Cleared for ILS to runway One Eight Contact Tower on One Two Eight Point Four Five good afternoon
I was almost on the localizer and the GS was above me when this happened. These instructions came one after the other, split seconds apart. They were not needed but even if they were I could not maneuver the airplane fast enough to comply.
Has anyone had anything like this happen? 😨
