So am I correct so in saying a crew of an aircraft that has transmitted a mayday call will fly an approach to land while aircraft are continuing to line up and TO.
Would that be the general consesious? {Referring to all airports}
Yes, as long as the departing aircraft will not delay the arriving aircraft.

What's the point arguing about it?
It all should be written in Local procedures. In place where I'm now if any aircraft declares mayday,departures and arrivals shall be suspended 15 minutes prior to arrival of emergency traffic.

Surely that doesn't include Medical and Fuel emergencies.

Basically no,but I do suppose if pilot calls Mayday stating short of fuel,departures and arrivals will be suspended,since it says whenever it's mayday...
But again at the end of a day, I'll provide priority and that's it, it's up to TWR sup to decide suspend or not. But till today indeed wasn't suspended for medical and fuel.
