it would be very simple for ATC in EDI to send an e-mail to the airline ops rooms in EDI entitled.
'How to get the best out of EDI ATC'
in it you could mention all the usual point raised in these topics. As an EDI based Pilot I reckon it'd stop half the guys moaning if they understood the limitations on ATCO's and the airport itself.
most of the base captains / crew managers would be only too happy to pass it on.
as for the bickering. well done, very helpful. I'll give you all a hand putting your toys back in your pram when you've finished...
