Having managed to avoid Public Transport for the last twenty years of flying for my B, L and T, Class A wasn't mandatory in my job (in fact I only flew PT for two years of my four decades plus of flying), but I did always try to fly iaw Class A procedures whenever possible. However, regularly faced with a particular confined area landing site with only one clear route in and out, I often had to do one or the other downwind. I'd rather go in downwind light if it meant flying into wind when loaded up, for all the usual reasons.
No longer my problem though. These days I keep myself busy doing all sorts of stuff rather than aviation.
