The PIC of PA28 made an avoidance orbit on finals as he felt that safety had been compromised
I think that this was the most dangerous action taken during this incident.
The PA28 claims to have turned base over a recognised feature (the lakes) although it seems unlikely that any recognised noise abatement circuit would have an aircraft turning final at 4 miles.
152(1) (after what sounds like some rather pointed, non standard RT) then cut in front of the PA28.
The PA28 then found himself No.3 on final, and should have gone around. Instead, he chose not to conform with the traffic pattern, and performed an orbit on final, endangering any unknown traffic behind him.
The two of them are as bad as each other, and someone at Cumbernauld should crack their heads together!
Thing:
The aircraft on 1 mile final in front of the 28 should be 152 (2) shouldn't it?
Yes, and then C152(1) turned final between them. (If I've read it correctly.)
