I flew in on Friday morning and heard it on radio ... Great airfield but what a shambles !!! During my approach we had the 120 out of control on wrong side of the field , a fixed wing landed opposite direction ( downwind ) with NO radio calls . A Long Ranger was hovering around the edge of the active for ages saying he couldn't turn down wind ....there were no marshalls , the joining instructions made no sense and in any event were not used as all runways were being used at same time !!! Add to this sitting in curtesy car for over 10 mins waiting for permission to cross during which time no aircraft landed .
Not impressed .... But fun day out all the same !!
Ps it was breezy but not that bad .....
