Narrative

THE SIT OCCURRED IN OUR DSCNT JUST S OF GNV; FL. WE WERE TALKING TO ZJX. THEY ASKED US TO SLOW DOWN TO .76 MACH FOR SEQUENCING INTO TPA. SOUNDS NORMAL ENOUGH. THEN I SEE 2 PLANES GO UNDER US IN THE SAME DIRECTION. A FEW MINS LATER; WE WERE ASKED TO TURN 20 DEGS L. THEN WE WERE ASKED TO GO 20 DEGS R; THEN FURTHER 20 DEGS TO THE R. I INQUIRED AS TO WHERE THE ACFT BELOW US WERE GOING. ATC SAID TPA. WE WERE THEN HANDED OFF TO ANOTHER ZJX FREQ. THIS GUY TOLD US TO TURN FURTHER R TO A HDG OF 360 DEGS. I QUERIED THIS TURN AND HE SAID HE WAS HAVING PROBS WITH THE SECTOR UP THE ROAD. I'VE SEEN AT LEAST 3-4 AIRLINERS FLY PAST US NOW. I ASKED ATC FOR THEIR PHONE NUMBER; WHICH HE GAVE TO ME; THEN TOLD US TO FLY TO A FIX ON THE ARR AND HANDED US OFF. A LADY WAS WORKING THE FREQ. A SECOND LATER; A MAN WAS WORKING THE FREQ. HE TURNED US TOWARD THE ARPT. WE LANDED WITH NO ONE IN FRONT OF US. THE OTHER PLT; ONCE WE WERE ON THE GND; CALLED THE NUMBER THAT WAS GIVEN AND TALKED TO THE ACTING SUPVR OF ZJX. THE MAN SAID THERE WOULD BE AN INVESTIGATION OF THE POOR HANDLING AND THAT THERE WAS AN IN-HOUSE CONFLICT BTWN THE 2 ZJX SECTORS. IF WE WERE ALLOWED TO KEEP OUR HDG AND SPD UP; THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN NO CONFLICT. THE SOLUTION TO THIS PROB; WOULD BE BETTER ATC TRAINING; AND PLT/CTLR SEMINARS TO ENHANCE ATC AWARENESS OF WHAT WE EXPECT AS FAR AS HANDLING AND WHAT THEY ARE CAPABLE OF PROVIDING TO US. THEY ALSO NEED TO BE AWARE OF EACH PLANE'S POTENTIAL SPDS.
