If you want to see some really pathetic and
inconsiderate back-tracking, watch Thomsonfly at Coventry! It is unbelievable how long they take to clear the runway, with aircraft often holding all over the place to get in. Add their 10 nm final approaches (unwisely as it is Class G airspace), and I wonder who is the control freak at TOM who forces so much inflexibility. One can wait for ages to get into CVT when there is a TOM B737 approaching within 15 nm of it, or, in fact, when there is one taxiing out
No disrespect to the pilots; they have to follow procedures, but it is a pity that the company does not understand the needs of other users. It's as though they just live in their own world.
