Cape ATC'sssssss
Well wouldn't it be nice if we could all get along all the time. I have flown fixed and rotary into and around CT (live in Shark territory) for several years and generally have no complaints and the service I have received has been professional.
It only takes one bad egg!!!!
After +20 years flying I will be the first to admit I don't get it rite,write,wright,right every time. Sorry!!!!
I didn't get it right in atrocious weather (not according to the Wxman???) in a chopper the other day and there by Muizemberg clipped the edge of the CTR by about a mile inside IMC.
As I say, sorry!!!! however after I landed and phoned the tower to talk to the controller(tower) I was smugly informed that it was too late and an incident had already been filed against me.
So be it.
All is fair in love and war and the rule-book. But believe me, at 50' trying to keep the beach in sight in unforecast rain and clouds I don't believe I delayed his 15 000'IFR traffic as much as he led me to believe I did.
Yup that's the rules!!!!! Anyway to the others who are willing to talk first. Good on ya!!!
Keep it safe.
