Many of us are professional pilots with someone else footing the bill. When it comes out of your own pocket you look at things differently. Was on an IFR checkride in a 206 and asked the pilot what speed he was going to fly the ILS, “why, Vne of course” he replied, “unless you want to pitch in for the rental”. All of us share JTobias sentiment to avoid unnecessary costs from oblivious ATC.
