Maybe if more pilots knew about this action, these minor (but
potentially dangerous) infractions would stop?

Do =you= do any "minor" infractions that other pilots may consider
potentially dangerous (but you don't consider dangerous, else you
wouldn't do them)? How much "governmnet down our necks" do you want?

I don't want ANY government down our necks. But neither have I found a
good way to stop pilots from performing stupid pilot tricks like
landing at our airport on an opposing (unpublished) traffic pattern,
simply because it saves them some fuel. It happens so often that I
have to believe that it's become standard policy for some charter
operators to land in whatever way saves the most fuel, damn the rules.

Quite frankly, I don't think we need *any* more enforcement action.
(And I'm not commenting on the merits of the case in question, BTW.)
What we need is to PUBLICIZE that enforcement action has already taken
place. I'll bet that would give some of these prima donna pilots
second thoughts before they ignored everyone else in the pattern...
