I get around a bit, and have to say that my experience does not agree with the sentiments presented here.

I mostly find the regional RPT crews to be very professional and courteous and am always happy to facilitate their circuit entry and landing because it is no skin off my nose to do so, but there is nothing I enjoy more than pitting the speed range and flexibility in the circuit of the Bo against their SOPs!

Been around too long and know the rules well enough not to be bullied by someone with an over inflated view of their own importance.

PS:

Q-link: All traffic Bundy etc etc (standard call, followed by) All traffic, go ahead positon and intentions...
RPT Operator: We're just coming up on a 15 mile final do you mind waiting for us?
Calls like those don't bother me - I just ignore them!
