Landing at a towered field nordo is no more or less interesting than
landing anywhere else nordo. Watch out for other traffic, land, and
clear the runway. Nothing else really matters much. HVN is a pretty
sleepy place most of the time; you're more likely to find other
traffic at a lot of uncontrolled fields with active flight schools.
