Having chatted to a number of people, who like me, fly both with and without radios, all agree that orbits are fine at an uncontrolled airfield. It does depend on many factors of course.
And if you've flown non-radio, I'm sure you'll agree, you're much more aware of what people are up to especially in the cct.
My point was....If you want to do a straight in app please bear in mind the a/c on it's 2nd or 3rd cct since you've been on freq is almost certainly going to be training. And if at an early stage of learning the approach, seeing the correct "picture" a few times is vital. And it's costing him/her £15 a go.
I'm done here now!
Happy landings all!!!
