So many variables involved eg altitude and speed of the crosser, intensity of IFR arrivals and departures, classification of airspace, weather conditions etc that you're unlikely to find two airfields who do it exactly the same in the UK. Some airfields with class A or D airspace for instance, designate VFR crossing routes where the RTF procedures are laid down, whilst many just treat crossers on an ad hoc basis.
