Flysaucer,
I flew at Ardmore for ten years and it is busiest airport in NZ, if you learn't to fly there and know all the reporting points and procedures of course it shouldn't be a problem, I'm not sure what point you were were trying to make?
Imagine you're a new PPL never been there before and decide that because of your track you will join base, little do you know two aircraft are about to join straight in on final, one is joining overhead and three are in the circuit, what happens is everyone starts to shuffle around you trying to fix the spacing up when you should be giving away to them, not to mention if an idiot is at the controls, will he be looking in the right direction? up/down left/right?
You have told us you know Ardmore very well and nothing else.
