When is a/g no longer safe?
I fly from a very busy GA airport with only intermittant A/G and the general standard of airmanship around the airfield is low and standard of R/t is utter !!!!e. The instructors from the resident school are some of the worst offenders, regularly jumping in on final when someone else is already on final. They seem to have absolutely no regard to other people whatsoever and ifappraoched just bang on about the heroc miltary flying careers so how dare anyone question them. How the hell the pupils ever manage at a controlled airfield is beyond me!
The place has three tarmac and three grass runways (no names no pack drill!) all of which can be in use at the same time with a/c using opposing runways because someone is trying some low or slow flying stunt, whilst perhaps a twin is using the longest runway and someone in a microlight is using the into wind runway and aeros going on in the overhead. If one questions the wisdom of this the one is shot down as a kill joy but it is only a matter of time before some flys into some else. There is actually no deadside but people descend deadside to a particular runway and it is impossible to know what the hell is going on elsewhere.
Do fellow ppruners think that there should be a free for all with fortune favouring the brave?
Is the a point in terms of movements when the CAA look to upgrade at least to AFIS?
