Narrative:

I was unaware any unusual occurrence had happened until notified by telephone by my airline flight operations office on oct/thu/92. The alleged incident is said to have occurred the morning of oct/fri/92. The allegation by ATC is that I was assigned a clearance to conduct a visual approach to the runway and to maintain 180 KTS to the OM, and that I crossed the OM at a speed less than 180 KTS. No mention of this was made to my flight at the time of the alleged occurrence, to the best of my ability to recall at this time. If ATC had a safety concern and had alerted me to the situation I would have taken steps to rectify. Perhaps advisories or requests more concurrent with the dynamic, ongoing ATC flow would be a safer course of action than a telephone call advising of a 'violation' a week later.

Original NASA ASRS Text

Title: SPD DEV ALLEGED ON APCH OUTSIDE LOM.

Narrative: I WAS UNAWARE ANY UNUSUAL OCCURRENCE HAD HAPPENED UNTIL NOTIFIED BY TELEPHONE BY MY AIRLINE FLT OPS OFFICE ON OCT/THU/92. THE ALLEGED INCIDENT IS SAID TO HAVE OCCURRED THE MORNING OF OCT/FRI/92. THE ALLEGATION BY ATC IS THAT I WAS ASSIGNED A CLRNC TO CONDUCT A VISUAL APCH TO THE RWY AND TO MAINTAIN 180 KTS TO THE OM, AND THAT I CROSSED THE OM AT A SPD LESS THAN 180 KTS. NO MENTION OF THIS WAS MADE TO MY FLT AT THE TIME OF THE ALLEGED OCCURRENCE, TO THE BEST OF MY ABILITY TO RECALL AT THIS TIME. IF ATC HAD A SAFETY CONCERN AND HAD ALERTED ME TO THE SITUATION I WOULD HAVE TAKEN STEPS TO RECTIFY. PERHAPS ADVISORIES OR REQUESTS MORE CONCURRENT WITH THE DYNAMIC, ONGOING ATC FLOW WOULD BE A SAFER COURSE OF ACTION THAN A TELEPHONE CALL ADVISING OF A 'VIOLATION' A WK LATER.
