Well... you actually used the form of words "...he had just..." in the context of the action - not the later talking to you. So I'd suggest a
less reasonable interpretation!
Nevertheless, you'll see above (twice) that I did caveat my interpretation of what was written on the likelihood that your friend
wouldn't have been ringing for PPR at 5am.
Regardless, I do agree that publishing a requirement for PPR and then failing to answer the phone well in normal hours makes a mockery of the requirement and - of more direct importance to the airfield - loses them business. Given the 18 months we've just had, one would think that's an important consideration.
Not to say that "PPR" means different things to different airfields, which is another bugbear.
