So now the 2,000' in the CAAP isn't enough? Should it be 3,000'?
All I'm trying to do is provide some insight into what happens in the real world. Not trying to come across as some form of sky God. We fly the circuit at 1500'. It's in our ops manual. All I'm trying to say that if you were overflying us only 500' above, you would potentially cause a resolution advisory on our TCAS, meaning we would need to take evasive action, and fill out paper work afterwards. We don't own the sky, but this is a scenario we would avoid. Basically what I'm trying to say is good communication and airmanship in the CTAF is a good thing. Fly the circuit however you like, as long as it's legal and safe
