Indeed, are there is the operative word. Unnecessarily. I don't think that is something that any of the Solent controllers can reasonably be accused of.

My phrase may not have been the most diplomatic but then neither was my point. The traffic inside controlled airspace, flying airways is always going to take priority over VFR transits. That always seems to rub some people up the wrong way but it's a simple fact. That's why pilots need to have alternative plans and not rely on getting exactly what they want in this case.

Sometimes plans have to change. It's what makes flying interesting
