PNS CTLR UNABLE TO EFFECT A HDOF ON A CLBING NWBOUND BE55 AND A DSNDING WBOUND BE91 TO MOB TRACON. BOTH ACFT REQUIRED ADDITIONAL VECTORS TO REMAIN OUTSIDE OF MOB AIRSPACE. PNS CTLR ALLEGES CONTINUING PROB WITH MOB CTLRS.

Narrative

THESE ARE 2 SEPARATE EVENTS THAT OCCURRED WITHIN A FEW MINS WITH MOB APCH. ACFT #1 DEPARTED AL15; PROCEEDING NW TO THE M11 ARPT; CLBING TO 8000 FT. MOB APCH WOULD NOT TAKE THE HDOF; AND I HAD TO TURN THE ACFT TO THE NE TO REMAIN IN MY AIRSPACE. ACFT #2 WAS WBOUND; DSNDING TO 6000 FT; LNDG BFM. AGAIN; MOB APCH REFUSED TO TAKE THE HDOF. WHEN I ATTEMPTED TO SPIN THE ACFT; THE IRATE (JUSTIFIABLY) PLT CANCELED IFR. BOTH OF THE ACFT WERE ON IFR FLT PLANS; IN THE NAS SYS. THIS PROB WITH MOB APCH HAS BEEN ONGOING FOR MANY MONTHS. WE HAVE DOCUMENTED NUMEROUS OCCASIONS WHERE WE HAVE HAD TO SPIN ACRS; AIR TAXIES; CIVILIAN AND MIL BECAUSE THEY WOULD NOT ACCEPT A TIMELY HDOF. MANY OF US HAVE ALSO FILED UCR'S; TO NO AVAIL. THE CTLRS AT PNS APCH HAVE COMPLAINED FOR A LONG TIME ABOUT A PROB WE FEEL IS UNSAFE AND UNNECESSARY. CALLBACK CONVERSATION WITH RPTR REVEALED THE FOLLOWING INFO: THE RPTR ATTRIBUTES THESE INTERMITTENT; BUT CONSTANT; EVENTS TO PERSONALITY PROBS AT MOB APCH. THE 2 ACFT DESCRIBED IN THE EVENT WERE ON APPROPRIATE; LOA AUTH ROUTINGS. AUTOMATION WAS NOT A FACTOR; AND ACFT WERE IN PROPER HDOF MODE. THE RPTR IS ALSO CONCERNED WITH OTHER 'NONSTANDARD OPERATING PRACTICES' OBSERVED WITH CERTAIN MOB APCH PERSONNEL. THESE OTHER 'PRACTICES' MAINLY FOCUS ON THE EARLY TERMINATION OF VFR ACFT AND THE ASSOCIATED AUTOMATED TRACKED FLT PLANS. THE PNS CTLR IS REQUIRED TO ASK FOR PERTINENT INFO TO REINITIATE A TRACKED FLT THAT HAD BEEN ALREADY COMPLETE IN THE COMPUTER. THOUGH SIMILAR SITS HAVE BEEN OCCURRING FOR ALMOST 2 YRS; THE RPTR STATES THAT MGMNT HAS BEEN UNABLE TO RESOLVE THESE 'PERSONALITY ISSUES' WITH MOB.
