But then its not a standard OH as specified by the CAA its a home made adapted OH join to suit that airfield.

OK call it a minimal OH or whatever but if you only have 500 feet separation why bother just use what most of the world uses successfully to join rather than clinging onto something from bygone eras and trying to push it into a hole it really doesn't fit

For 500 (( feet why all the potential extra 90 degree turns? what for ? Every 90 degree turn is an extra collision hazard it has to be especially mixing high and low wing an aircraft of differing speed ?

I really do not understand why countries have to be so territorial in their rule making we should have uniformity worldwide. EASA were created at huge cost to rewrite the rule book when they could have just copied a tried successful and tested FAA system and saved the tax payer a fortune
