Narrative:

Phx runway 8 shortened by 5000 ft. Our carrier does not have performance data for the shortened runway. ATIS advised us to inform them if unable to use runway 8. We advised on initial contact. Other than sequencing problems for approach, there were no conflicts as we were cleared for a visual to runway 7R. As we taxied in, we were asked to call the TRACON supervisor and given a phone number to copy. I have always felt that the taxi was an inappropriate time to tell a crew to call the FAA! My first officer had difficulty putting it behind him as we taxied to the gate. This is not any time for distrs. The FAA can certainly wait until the aircraft is in the chocks to play policeman.

OTHER THAN SEQUENCING PROBS FOR APCH, THERE WERE NO CONFLICTS AS WE WERE CLRED FOR A VISUAL TO RWY 7R. AS WE TAXIED IN, WE WERE ASKED TO CALL THE TRACON SUPVR AND GIVEN A PHONE NUMBER TO COPY. I HAVE ALWAYS FELT THAT THE TAXI WAS AN INAPPROPRIATE TIME TO TELL A CREW TO CALL THE FAA! MY FO HAD DIFFICULTY PUTTING IT BEHIND HIM AS WE TAXIED TO THE GATE. THIS IS NOT ANY TIME FOR DISTRS. THE FAA CAN CERTAINLY WAIT UNTIL THE ACFT IS IN THE CHOCKS TO PLAY POLICEMAN.
