Yes he specifically asked for an SRA app and whether I was qualified to carry out the procedure, from your earlier email, I did not realize how involved it was.
I will print it out.

Ps
Tonight whilst on Leeds app, discovered that my Tower controller was also flying on Vatsim, would explain why DFT501 left the circuit for EGGP rather peeved. Not sure whether I should report it and to whom. I did have a text from IVAO-AEI querying why 501 was now on my frq instead of TWR as his FP was for circuits EGNM, shows you do not know who is watching. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Fossil" <fossil@xxxxxxx>

I don't understand what you are saying.

If the pilot requested an SRA then he is asking for a radar talkdown. That
means he has no navaids available to fly the approach himself and it is up
to you to get him on the ground.

Are you sure it was an SRA he requested?

I gathered he wanted to practise doing the approach whilst I gave him radar
cover and help. Seemed to be a bit peeved that I did not answer in the
affirmative, never having to do this procedure before. Appart from missed
approaches.

In fact, this was just after my tower controller disappeared without
warning, (a 2 hour newbie, he appeared also without contacting me, very
rude).

I doubt I will see the pilot again, and if it was me, I would have done an
inital practise offline before bugging a controller.
