Workinghard:
The military should by now be well aware that they share the sky with others and have no more rights than the next. It is a pity that more prosecution are not brought against the very few military cowboys that we all accept exist. However trying to find and prove is of course well nigh impossible since to identify a military aircraft is nearly impossible.
I would reply on behalf of my Military bretherin that this could possibly read:
"Civilian pilots should by now be well aware that they share the sky with others and have no more rights than the next"
Afterall, your quote suggests that the Herc had just as much right to be there as you with ATC was shut, maybe they could be filing against you. Just because it may be your home aerodrome gives you no greater right!
