Flybymike, not meaning to insult you; I was not there. Maybe I was generalising.
What about my comments re patience and accommodation? Do you agree with them?
I have seen the problems caused by pilots who demand access to runways or airspace (I am not saying this was the case here) causing student pilots to make errors in their attempts to get out of the way. So long as we don't know the reason for the unusual activity (which could be a variety of reasons from mechanical difficulties, radio problems, unfamiliarity, lack of proper training, etc) we should give the benefit of the doubt and give them room. If we get to fly another 10 minutes, isn't that what we are doing there anyway?
They call it a brotherhood of flight for a reason.
