There is another more recent issue with which CBN needs to take notice. It is now right in the middle of a lot of controlled airspace. Scottish TMA, Edinburgh, and closest of all, Glasgow. It is now a busier corridor, due to a lot of transit aircraft from Strathaven moving North, and from North bound, who do not wish a zone transit, heading South. If departing West, you are almost instantly hitting the East boundry of GLA zone, therefore any nonsense, or confusion from some clown in the tower, is not beneficial for a pilot, particularly trainee pilots, and there are three training schools at CBN. Or were....

Both GLA, and EDI, ask you to contact CBN, if moving close or over the active, therefore the requirement for some sort of professionalism, is paramount. As I stated earlier, my recent flyovers, have been met with courtesy and no issue, that said what else would one expect?????

Time to nip it in the bud
