Pilot of Enstrom G-**NN - we felt for you!!!

Tuesday 4 April 1830local
Coventry Area

Running the gambit of trying to get across coventry atz, vmc, one airliner in distant pattern.
I managed - just, but poor old G-NN (Enstrom I think) was instructed to hold north, and hold, and hold, and hold......
Despite being visual with the world, he was still held clear, and where was the airliner? Yet to capture the ILS - far in the distance........
G-NN should be good at orbits by now.

To think that EGBC want an increased zone/atc - happy days
Even when you're outside of their atz, atc still want you to change heading/hold etc - airliner company need reprimanding if such low-level traffic is deemed a problem - Duty of Care blah blah, fare-paying passengers outside of cas blah blah.......

Pilot of G-NN - we felt for you because we knew it could so easily have been us!!!!
