Firstly, I did not swallow
Lets make that quite clear.
From what was initially said, followed by what others actually went on to say, down to a point of identification (with no mention from the op) a picture was forming.
I stepped in purely along the lines that if this radio operator was lambasting people over the airwaves, how would a newly qualified pilot react to this on final approach?
It could have been an accident waiting to happen. I would have also stepped in if I was an aircraft on frequency and I heard Mono getting a b****ing for what ever reason.
I still recall that guy at Elstree and indeed that Sunday afternoon in his little tower, uninvited.
