are to the SE, takeoffs to the NW with an immediate turn N for the

You are technically correct, Blanche, but don't take off to the SW
without observing this note from the KASE Airport Information Chart:
"Take-off not authorized on Rwy 15 without written permission
from airport manager."
Though I'm not certain, I think noise issues affect that operation, too.

BTW, Blanche, have you ever visited the huge localizer antenna array
up at the top of Ajax, near the restaurant?
Impressive, isn't it?
