Whilst I always try and pose restrictions to GA ac as a request, I have been to forums in which continuious requests to do things for the purposes of separation have not gone down well. Especially as the pilot complying with the request never wanted separation in the first place. These requests have been taken as an imbugerance by some and this is where the feeling of "grumbles" comes from.
It would however appear from the replys that there is no difference in the fundemental application of RAS, it therefore begs the question where are the differences, why do we appear to be a profession divided by a common language.
If everyone is so uniform why have we spent 4 pages disagreeing with each other.
