My post was only intended to describe in brief how an SRA works - it doesn't
provide any instruction in how to conduct one or any of the very specific
radio procedures required.
I presume an SRA is taught as part of the C2 exam so I guess you have to be
rated APP to conduct one.
As to your Leeds TWR controller flying on VATSIM as well as controlling on
IVAO it depends on circumstances. How do you know he was flying on VATSIM?
Did he ignore his IVAO duties and compromise traffic? If the latter is true
you should have followed the rules and called in a supervisor and then
explained the situation to him - he can then reprimand or kick the user as
he sees fit.
You can find a list of supervisors online from the IVAO HQ, Services page.
Alternatively you could have sent a WALLOP message on text.

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.
