Vancouv,
I totally agree with Tigerbatics. A/G would in many pilot's eyes be an upgrade. Pilots would have to make their own decisions and not have to rely on ATC to do it for them. In my view, it would become safer, more efficient and would certainly attract me back there. Having full ATC does not make things any safer.......
ATC are there only to facilitate the pilot's needs and not the other way round. Shoreham ATC conveniently forgot this many years ago
