While in the run up area at KORL yesterday I hear the tower controller start berating a guy for being in the class Delta. Went something like this:
T: Who is the Lake Amphibian that is flying in the north of my class Delta without permission?
P: This is experimental blahblah landing at lake blahblah, my seaplane port and I am not in the Delta.
T: My radar shows you in the Delta.
P: Well my chart shows I'm not.
T: If my radar shows you in the Delta then you are.
P: Look lady, I don't care what your radar shows, I am looking at the TPA-ORL terminal area chart and I am not in "Your Delta!"
I had always thought the chart was controlling. Who is right here?
