Default Busy airports and small GA

I've only flown on VATSIM, where controllers are a bit surprised by
any type of GA traffic (most VATSIM members prefer to fly airliners,
for some reason). They are often rusty with VFR procedures and
considerations for small aircraft. I doubt that this correlates with
real life, because the traffic mix and load are different on VATSIM.


Gee, simulation and the real world are different, what a surprise.

I have heard that some large airports don't welcome small GA aircraft
at all (or, in Europe, they forbid it), whereas others are quite
friendly towards the visiting Cessna or Bonanza, even VFR.


Define "welcome" and "friendly".






He'd have to have some sort of real life experience for that, wouldn't he?

Oh wait, he doesn't need that for anything. My bad.
