Requesting a hold from ATC for descents

Never happens. Like the other gentleman says, the spoilers (actually speed brakes when used in flight) are the "ace in the hole." Sam, Never say never  I have asked for, and received a turn in the hold to lose altitude, after arriving at the final fix about 10,000 feet high. This was due to descent restrictions from center because of other approaches in progress. The flight spoilers on a 727 are *very* effective, but they can't perform miracles! Happy Flying!
