What was the ATC policy at EGBE re mixing of IFR and VFR trafiic (rwy23) on the day of the accident. Was it possible for:
(a) VFR traffic to commence base leg while IFR traffic was localiser established
(b) VFR traffic to commence base leg while IFR traffic was inbound from CT (finals).
I think I know what in reality was the situation over the years has been at Coventry regarding IFR/VFR traffic, but I would be interested to know what the experience of others have been over the years.
