Ah, so it seems some of the indulgees doing their own thing in light aircraft may have decided, on hearing reports from RPT aircraft, to manoeuvre so as to avoid the flight paths of those aircraft but not blab on the radio about it. Or maybe the indulgees doing their own thing in light aircraft were on the wrong frequency or had some other finger trouble. Either way, this could only be of concern to the RPT pilots if they were aware of the existence and location of the indulgees doing their own thing. I wonder how that could be possible, in the absence of blabbing on the radio...

And mandating more blabbing won’t fix wrong frequency selection or other finger trouble.

I do hope that pilots of RPT aircraft operating in and out of aerodromes in G take seriously the threat of indulgees doing their own thing in light aircraft on the wrong frequency or having some other finger trouble.
