Factual narrative
WHILE ON A FIVE MILE FINAL APCH TO RWY 26R THE DHC 7 ENCOUNTERED MODERATE TURBULENCE AND TWO CABIN ATTENDANTS SUSTAINED INJURIES. AT 1506:02 HOURS HST A WESTERN AIRLINES DC10 REQUESTED AN S TURN TO LOSE ALTITUDE IN ORDER LAND ON RWY 26L. SEVEN SECONDS LATER N929HA WAS GIVEN A WAKE TURBULENCE CAUTION BY THE SAME ATC SPECIALIST. ACCORDING TO A REVIEW OF THE REPORT BY AN ATC SPECIALIST FROM THE BUREAU OF TECHNOLOGY, NTSB, WASHINGTON, DC, ALL FAA ATC SEPARATION REQUIREMENTS WERE MET.
