I haven't heard anyone say something like: I offered to cross final and do a right 270 turn and rejoin final behind the plane calling on final.

Or: Plane on final offering to do a 360 turn to allow base traffic to go ahead.



Of all the things I see in uncontrolled circuits, I think orbiting on base and final are the most dangerous!

As an aside, I've received an ATC instruction to orbit on final before now.
I hope you respectfully told them where to shove that instruction.

I remember that 'accident', Dave. It was tragic.
