Takeoff delays

[archer49d]

Just today I was flying in to Honolulu (in real life), they shut down one of the runways... it sounded like this, just some memorable excerts
from memory of course.

ATC: 27L, continue holding.
27L: We've been holding all day.

ATC: Thank you, 69D, hold the Koko Head VOR.
69D: Will hold the Koko Head VOR

ATC: Makani-kai 01, please enter class B at or below 400
MK1: At or below 400, MK1.

ATC: Mokulea 33 divert from runway 4R to 8L for traffic
M33: Uhmmmm, realy?
ATC: Yeah, for traffic.
M33: Diverting. (This is a major diversion, its 90 degrees left and you essentially fly a TIGHT pattern with a Dash .

ATC: 69D, enter Class be and maintain 2000 until downind, then descend at pilots discretion.
69D: Maintain 2000 until downind, then descent at my discretion. (This is a dive on downing with the engine at idle and full flaps with gear
down).

ATC: 27L, thank you for holding, cleard to NARBY and intercept the ILS runway 4R.
27L: Thank you, cleard to NARBY and will FINALLY intercept the ILS for 4R.

Kind of all day like that. Stupid stuff happens in real life too, and a lot more than in the sim.
