Had I been the controller I'd have told the supervisor that if she wanted
the aircraft brought to any runway other than the one requested by the pilot
she'd have to remove me from the position.


The controllers I've met would probably agree.

But then again, they're also pilots, as I believe you are.

Even the ones who aren't pilots would agree. I'm quite surprised that anyone
in ATC would make a mistake as stupid as this one. One wonders where they
found that supervisor.
