This has been a very "reasoned" debate" and whilst staggered at the number of "views" and not wishing to push the numbers up, I now have another "scratch my head question" thanks to your latest post FF.
I have absolutely zero time in a Non R/T plane. I have been to airfields with no comms and joined overhead, checked the signal square and carried out published circuit etc.
However, non R/T mixing with the rest of us: surely the same Rules of the Air apply? Plane on runway ahead, non R/T on finals - surely he / she should instigate a Go-Around if perception dictates that say a land after is not going to work?
P.S. FF - you may have gleaned that "SS" is not some contrived paranoid desire to be a "Top Gun", but rather photography based.
Don't know what type of ground to ground pics you are collecting but if I can help..........not into digital yet, but seriously contemplating a Canon D60..........but how many hours will that spend detract from aviating & keep me on the ground
