Note that FAR 91.126 begins with "Unless otherwise authorized or
required".
That is splashing all around what I was talking about when Mike mentioned
the field in the boonies....Blueskies also asked the question about going
there to practice. There may have been a place where full-stop, back-taxi,
ground-looping (: , what-ever may have been authorized and could be done
safely in a training environment.
I really enjoy this forum as it has a relaxed and cordial atmosphere and I
had no intention of writing a brief on the legal requirements of practicing
right-hand traffic that Mike W likes to do. I've been flying disaster
relief into Mississippi and Louisiana over the past several weeks and
although there are control towers, it goes something like this, "xxxx,
advise what you'd like to do." There is right-hand traffic landing short as
intersection take-offs roll out and helicopters land on the parallel
taxiway, all at the same time.
If you can find a place to safely practice non-standard stuff, then good for
you. It is a skill that may come in very handy.
