So, here's a question for the house.
You're in the circuit, established crosswind or downwind, and the aircraft in front has extended sooooooo far in front of you that you need to get the chart out since you've either lost, or will lose, sight of the runway (and let's face it, that's only a slight exaggeration, if at-all).
What is the most effective way of pointing this out to the world at large, without cluttering up RT unnecessarily or affecting safety.
Mine would be a call to the tower along the lines of "negative, I am No.1, aircraft in front has left the circuit", but is there a better way? (Did a variation on this at a certain airfield in Northants airfield not long ago, turned out the aircraft in front was the local school CFI
).
