Please, when visiting a new aerodrome, can you make sure that you read the Pooleys/AFE/CAA (or whatever flight guide it is you use) VERY CAREFULLY.
On numerous occaisions (and the frequency seems to be increasing) aircraft have flown either striaght into noise abatement areas or flown into CAS or don't fly the correct circuit procedures, altitudes or joins and I can only assume it's because they haven't read the plate. If it states that you should remain west of the M1 or whatever, then that is usually because east of the road is a hotbed for complaints - or controlled airspace.
Residents don't care whether the aircraft is home based or not - all they care about is it's making a noise. When you leave it is the home based clubs have to pick up the complaints.
ATC don't care either....all they know is they have an infringement to deal with.
The local traffic is also put at risk by traffic using inappropriate joins.
Some airfields insist on PPR by phone before arriving. That is usually for a very good reason - because arriving / departing is not as easy as you might think.
If you haven't read your home plate for a while then it may be worthwhile re-reading it just to refresh your memory for your home circuits - there are a few locals who seem to think that the rules are for others.
Noise abatement areas don't go away just because you have a fast aircraft.
