That is splashing all around what I was talking about when Mike mentioned
the field in the boonies....
I have no idea what that means.
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.
You can practice right-traffic at controlled fields and at uncontrolled
fields that have right-traffic. You can't practice right-traffic at
uncontrolled fields that have left traffic.
