A tower-induced go-round

Nothing there about crosswind being the "standard" departure.

So he leaves the area in a different direction than everyone else. Why is
that a problem?
It's a problem when he tries to leave by going through me. It's a
problem when he doesn't announce his departure vector. It's a problem
when he doesn't respond or acknowledge position reports. It's a problem
when he disrupts the nominally formed traffic pattern. It's a problem
when he flies directly opposite the approach and likely descent vectors
(following the Paradise VOR) of other aircraft. It's a REAL problem when
he does it at 140 knots.
Did you not actually read my responses? It seems likely, after the way
you treated Jay.
