Easy in and out for Sunday!!
I recall seeing a very nice Super King Air backing up into position opposite the Roulettes. Walking past and seeing the passengers hop out, I thought, now that is a nice way to arrive.
Yes that Kingair was a very nice aircraft.
He was a bit of a prima donna. He did not have the required prior permission from ASDU (all charters and private flyers were required to go VFR to Avalon East). ATC and ASDU did the right thing and let him in. Then at 4 pm he decides he wants to go and taxis to holding point and calls. ATC says no as the flying display is still happening so he gets stuck into them. ATC quite rightly insisted he shut down at the holding point and wait until the display finished at 5 pm.
Did he not read AIP SUP? Or maybe he thought it didn't apply to him? Just as well there were not too many like that.......
