Human Factors
I was cleared for the visual approach to rwy 07R to LAS 6 NM behind Aircraft Y on the same visual approach. I was in the descent of 2400 feet per min on speed of 210 when Aircraft Y stated he could not get down and he was doing a right 360 to get down. Approach told me to level 8000 and turn to a heading of 070. I immediately rolled up the 8000 alt select stopped a 2400 min descent by turning off the Auto Pilot as I went through 8000 to 7700-7800 not sure all while turning in an aggressive maneuver pulling g forces. My CEO was not happy but I did what was needed. The controller yelled at me for not responding and I responded that I had a lot to do to stop the descent and turn so he could just hold on. I did nothing wrong. He went quiet and then asked if I wanted the Visual approach for 19R and I accepted to be put second to the airlines that should have been made to go around and get in sequence.
Corporate Jet Captain reported he had to level off rapidly when the airliner on a visual approach to LAS in front of him did a 360 degree turn to get down.
