It's easy to see the complications already arising from local groups who also use the airspace. It becomes the reverse of the Essendon type argument where you have many existing users told to pack their bags or stay away during tower operation because large jets have moved in.

So while the argument of having a tower is valid, it is infringing on the rights of others to use the airspace and area surrounding for recreational purposes, just so some airlines can make more profit.

I still see close calls happening in this airspace after tower implementation for exactly the same reasons that exist without.
