Just a note to those of you who may require to fly an SRA into a military airfield, and I can think of one in particular. The phraseology is a lot different to what you may be used to going into Luton for instance. Firstly, you may be instructed by the director to fly the approach on QFE and not on QNH, but that will depend on the pattern at the time. However, in my experience as a Sup I used to be flexible when possible, although the ATC Examiners would frown (in as severe a manner posssible) at using mixed pressures in a pattern.
On handover to the SRA controller you will be formerly idented by the controller and asked to read back the QFE/QNH set. at the 4 1/2 mile point you will hear "check gear acknowledge" we want to hear "3 greens" or "gear down". We will not give you a clearance at 4 miles, or 2 1/2 if you are continued, unless we hear those magic words. A controller would lose ahis ticket if he issued the clearance. It just is not cricket! You will also get told you are appraoching the msised apraoch point and passing missed appraoch point (where the SRA will end).
If you do have to go to a military airfield and you are unsure of the procedures, especially if there is no ILS, then a phone call to the duty Sup will give you all the help you need. Certainly when I was a Sup, and I am only out for 2 years whilst I do something different, it was always good to talk to the pilots before they came in, especially if they were in doubt.
Remember, it is good to talk!
