Sorry Hugmonster, I totally disagree with you.
This has nothing to do with “Hot shot pilots” ! We’re just trying to keep the emergency frequencies quiet as long as possible !!
Both emergency frequencies are misused for practice pans by the military and civilians in the U.K.
I’ll repeat my question: Why can’t you do this practice- which is a very good practice for a student - on a “normal” Atc frequency (which is not too busy) ??
Also it sounds quite arrogant if you talk about the “British system” which produces the highest standards in the world. Get alive !!
