Now, Harry, did YOU announce YOUR entry into the pattern? I realize that
it is not required, but it IS good practice.

First sentence (!), "My father and I were returning to Petaluma (O69),
called in on the 45 to downwind..." (and all other legs as well, FWIW)

You formation guys need to pay more attention...

Harry
