Totally agree. I'll take uncontrolled over non-radar Class Delta, any
day. Do you think the problem is the tower, or the fact that they tend to have more traffic? I think it's a combination of factors. Mostly I think it's a problem with controllers who *think* they know where the planes are, based on (often erroneous) pilot position reports, combined with the limitations of what a guy can see with binoculars. When you've got a guy directing traffic who has a faulty mental picture of the traffic in the airspace -- often through no fault of his own -- you've got a recipe for trouble. And you often get it, in my experience. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination"
